Coach Talk

RzeszówCoughlins2020
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches, right? Thanks to a thrilling performance from Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up HardBoys at the quarterback position this past week (28.48 points to 12.38). Mahomes went 27-for-47 for 302 yards and two TDs in a 23-20 triumph over the Chargers.
HardBoys
Zero touchdowns and two interceptions for Carson Wentz against the Rams this week. Zero wins and two losses for HardBoys on the 2020 season. I'm usually pretty old-fashioned when it comes to all these fancy numbers and stuff... but our analytics staff keeps hitting me up, saying that this is the kind of coincidence we'd like to avoid.
