Coach Talk

Kastani Packers
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Kastani Packers! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve... our QB was clearly outplayed this past week. Kirk Cousins went 24-of-41 for 260 yards and two touchdowns for Sada's Gardeners, and all Russell Wilson could manage through the air was 184 passing yards. We need to bounce back with a big statement in Week 4!
