Coach Talk

Jim Schwartz’ Gym Shorts
Hey, football is all about creating mismatches, right? We really emphasized that by thoroughly outplaying Baboons at running back this past week (56 points to 8.5).
Baboons
Registering three receptions on just four measly targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Baboons clearly should investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
