Coach Talk

Koop Kupp Klan
The key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a sound outing by Jalen Hurts, we almost tripled McAfrican American at the quarterback position this past week (34.02 points to 12.06). Hurts went 26-for-31 for 333 yards, one TD, and an INT in a 24-7 win over the Vikings.
McAfrican American
Unless McAfrican American wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" is definitely not an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 25 times in Week 2. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in just 13 catches.
