Coach Talk

Will0120
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to an awesome outing from Russell Wilson, we utterly dominated Xheryk at the quarterback position this past week (36.36 points to 6.34). Wilson went 21-for-28 for 288 yards, five TDs, and an INT in a five-point win over the Patriots.
Xheryk
Listen, Xheryk, I've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes nine extra points can just miraculously appear out of the blue... and then in some cases, like this week, they don't! In the grand scheme of things, the most important thing here is that you gave it your best shot.
