Coach Talk

PJ
We're wondering if the GM of PJ was sweating bullets in this one? In a matchup that was ultimately decided by only 0.2 points, Mason Crosby (3-of-4 on the day) decided that going 4-for-4 on field goals just wouldn't have been exciting enough. Remember kids, every point matters!
MOBSQUAD
A single missed field goal isn't typically cause for concern. Having said that, Greg Zuerlein went 2-for-3 on FGs instead of 3-for-3, and MOBSQUAD lost the matchup by 0.2 points. Talk about impeccable timing...
