Coach Talk

Bob Russ
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? Thanks to a thrilling performance by Russell Wilson, we doubled up Dak MeHoff at the quarterback position this past week (35.06 points to 15.38). Wilson went 18-for-23 for 254 yards and four TDs in a 28-16 triumph over the Colts.
Dak MeHoff
You can feel good knowing that your generosity did not go unnoticed. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Bob Russ succeed this week... and when the time comes, maybe they can return the favor by selecting a couple of defenses early in next year's draft (something like that). Keep your chin up, Dak MeHoff!
