Coach Talk

Texas Proud
You know, the key to football is spotting (and then exploiting) the mismatches. Thanks to a sound display from Geno Smith, we doubled up The Klingons at the quarterback position this past week (79 points to 33). Smith went 21-for-36 for 264 yards, three TDs, and two INTs in a 30-24 loss to the Panthers.
The Klingons
Shucks, the blame for this tight loss can be placed more heavily on the Texans coaching staff than on the quarterback. This week's gameplan required the QB to attempt only 21 passes, and Davis Mills did what he could... finding his target on a superb 76% of them!
