It is not what I want him to say, it is what he should say. Or, not say for that matter.
The coach said "I don't know how we can match up to them, do you, because if you so tell me and we will both know." Or workds to that effect.
There is a difference between "talking up the other team" and surrendering the outcome. When is the last time you ever heard ANY head coach in the NFL "talk up a team" like that?
