Coach Talk

A. Brown Knows Her
Props to you, A. Brown Knows Her. Nice work fielding a lineup that registered nearly 112 points this past week.
Almighty Push
Your quarterback tossed two interceptions and just one touchdown? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape. Were the Cardinals truly that good defending the pass, or was Tom Brady just that sloppy from the pocket?
