Coach Talk

Elvis
Creating mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Not only did we triple Indrid Cold at QB (29.02 points to 9.25), we also tripled them at WR (54.1 to 16.5).
Indrid Cold
Hey, Indrid Cold, what'd your receiving crew do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? With only 15 targets combined this past week, our four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) clearly need to get on their QBs' good sides this week in practice.
