Coach Talk

Amazeballs
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by a solid showing by Matthew Stafford, we royally dominated Ratdogs at the quarterback position this past week (39.16 points to 7.08). Stafford went 28-for-41 for 334 yards and three TDs (plus no INTs) in a 28-19 triumph over the Lions.
Ratdogs
With just four receptions this past week, the starting running backs for Ratdogs should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
