Coach Talk

Skyy's the Limit
Hey, football is all about creating mismatches, right? Not only did we double up Bourbon Meyers at WR (37.7 points to 18.8), we also utterly dominated them at QB (43.79 points to 12.03).
Bourbon Meyers
Wait, our quarterback threw one interception and literally zero touchdowns? Maybe we should go back and review the game tape. Was Jared Goff really that shaky in the pocket, or was the Patriots secondary just that strong defending the pass? This is the sort of judgment you'll need to make... Bourbon Meyers. The Lions have a bye next week, so fortunately you have some extra time to think on that one!
