Coach Talk

Captain Kirk
Creating mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Our team found one this past week and almost quadrupled Charlie's Angel at the quarterback position (29.04 points to 7.72).
Charlie's Angel
Wait, our quarterback tossed two interceptions and just one touchdown? It might be good to go back and review the game tape: Was Tom Brady actually that out-of-sync with the receivers, or were the Cardinals just that great defending the pass?
