Coach Talk

Team Scooter
Spotting mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Fueled by a stellar performance by Dak Prescott, we royally dominated The Do-Overs at the quarterback position this past week (28.42 points to 3.32). Prescott went 42-for-58 for 403 yards, three TDs, and an INT in a 31-29 loss to the Buccaneers.
The Do-Overs
Wait, our starting QB tossed two interceptions and literally zero touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape: Were the Saints truly that great against the pass, or was Aaron Rodgers just that sloppy from the pocket? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of The Do-Overs?
