Coach Talk

Xheryk
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to an awesome performance by Tom Brady, we absolutely dominated Elvis at the quarterback position this past week (23.94 points to 9.04). Brady went 25-for-38 for 297 yards and three TDs in a 28-10 win over the Broncos.
Elvis
Hey, at least there were no celebration penalties: The seven offensive position starters (three WRs, three RBs, one TE) on Elvis collectively gained a whopping 531 yards from scrimmage. Unfortunately, none of those starters could find his way to the end zone in Week 3.
