Coach Talk

Sprint Right Option
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a solid display from Justin Herbert, we thoroughly outplayed YOUalreadyKNOWsuckas at the quarterback position this past week (41.65 points to 4.6). Herbert went 26-for-38 for 281 yards and four TDs in a 30-24 triumph over the Chiefs.
YOUalreadyKNOWsuckas
There's still a ton of time remaining to turn this season around, YOUalreadyKNOWsuckas! The next few opponents might look at the win-loss record and foolishly believe they have a cakewalk. Do what Ezekiel Elliott and David Montgomery would in this scenario and keep pounding away... catch those complacent managers snoozing!
