Coach Talk

Beastmode Raiders
Hey, football is all about creating mismatches, right? Our team took that to heart this past week and doubled up Jerry's Pleasant Team at the quarterback position (28.98 points to 13.34).
Jerry's Pleasant Team
Our quarterback threw two interceptions and just one touchdown? Maybe we should go back and review the game tape. Was Tom Brady actually that out-of-sync with his receiving crew, or was the Cardinals secondary just that strong defending the pass?
