Coach Talk

Sidney Dak Prescott
Creating mismatches is a big key to success in football. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Minnesotasmith at the wide receiver position (44.2 points to 12.4).
Minnesotasmith
Generally, missing a field goal isn't anything to really be worried about. But come on now, talk about impeccable timing: Ryan Succop went 3-for-4 on FGs instead of 4-for-4, and Minnesotasmith lost the matchup by 2.8 points. We'll let you do the math on that one.
