Coach Talk

Naperville Endgame
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a solid outing from Jalen Hurts, we quadrupled Boom in the Endzone at the quarterback position this past week (29 points to 7). Hurts went 26-for-36 for 239 yards in a three-point win over the Cardinals.
Boom in the Endzone
Our quarterback threw one interception and literally zero touchdowns? I guess we're presented with a couple of options here. Were the Patriots really that stout defending the pass, or was Jared Goff just that sloppy from the pocket? This judgment is yours to make, Boom in the Endzone. The Lions have a bye next week, so fortunately you have some extra time to think on that one!
