Coach Talk

Buttkickers
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches, right? Not only did we almost triple Oilers at QB (46.96 points to 17), we also quadrupled them at RB (29.9 to 6.65).
Oilers
Wait, our starting QB tossed one interception and not a single touchdown? Maybe we need to go back and review the game tape. Were the Saints really that stout defending the pass, or did Deshaun Watson appear shaky back there in the pocket?
