Coach Talk

Hitters
Hey, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Sooneye at the wide receiver position (72.7 points to 33.2).
Sooneye
Wait, our quarterback tossed three interceptions and just a single touchdown? I guess we've stumbled upon a fork in the road here. Did Matthew Stafford seem flustered back there in the pocket, or was the Vikings secondary just that good against the pass?
