Coach Talk

Coneycowboys
The key to success in football is finding the mismatches. Fueled by a thrilling outing by Dak Prescott, we doubled up 69cuda at the quarterback position this past week (84 points to 41). Prescott went 34-for-47 for 450 yards and one TD in a one-point win over the Falcons.
69cuda
With only four catches this past week, the starting running backs for 69cuda should look into why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
