Brian Daboll in under no illusions about the capabilities of Dan Campbell’s bunch.
“They create explosive plays. Goff plays at a high level; he’s a very accurate passer downfield, intermediate, off the play action,” he said. “And then their two runners have taken it to the distance a few times. They’re both a little bit different but both very good. They’ve scored 30 points four times. In six of their losses, four of them have been four points or less. The other one against the Cowboys it was 10-6 with 3:20 left.
“Explosive team. Good football team. We’re going to need a good week of practice.”
