Coach Talk

BrEwErYtOwN HiTtAz
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches, right? We made that a point of emphasis by tripling Elijah's World-Class Team at running back this past week (32.5 points to 10.5).
Elijah's World-Class Team
Just one field goal on three attempts? Sounds like Justin Tucker might have just kicked himself back into the free agent pool after this performance.
