Coach Talk

Andrew R's Quality Team
Hey, this sport is all about spotting and exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a solid showing from Jared Goff, we doubled up Liam's Genius Team at the quarterback position this past week (25.7 points to 12.8). Goff went 25-for-42 for 355 yards and three TDs in a 37-23 loss to the Panthers.
Liam's Genius Team
Wait, our quarterback tossed one interception and no touchdowns? We may should have a little debate here. Were the Saints truly that strong against the pass, or was Deshaun Watson just that sloppy from the pocket?
