Coach Talk

San Diego Crush
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a solid performance from Jared Goff, we royally dominated The Flying Wedgies at the quarterback position this past week (39.98 points to 15.44). Goff went 27-for-37 for 302 yards in a 23-16 triumph over the Seahawks.
