Coach Talk

Raiders soul smasher
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a solid display from Ben Roethlisberger, we doubled up Outlaws at the quarterback position this past week (48.5 points to 22.4). Roethlisberger went 36-for-51 for 266 yards, one TD, and an INT in a five-point triumph over the Ravens.
Outlaws
Generally, a single missed field goal isn't any reason to worry. Having said that, Zane Gonzalez went 1-for-2 on FGs instead of 2-for-2, and Outlaws lost the matchup by 1.1 points. Talk about impeccable timing...
