Coach Talk

Syodoshima Baystars
Hey, this sport is all about recognizing the mismatches, right? Thanks to a sound performance from Josh Allen, we nearly quadrupled Panzer Leader at the quarterback position this past week (44.98 points to 11.8). Allen went 26-for-31 for 297 yards, three TDs, and two INTs in a 31-10 victory over the Rams.
Panzer Leader
Normally, missing a field goal isn't any reason to worry, but talk about impeccable timing: Ryan Succop goes 4-for-5 on FGs instead of 5-for-5, and Panzer Leader drops the matchup by 0.58 points. We'll let you do the math on that one.
