Coach Talk

I should of Pre-edit
A ton of action between the 20's: The six offensive skill starters on I should of Pre-edit (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) combined to record a whopping 548 total yards. No one from that group could find his way to paydirt in Week 3.
Pick Six
Pick Six may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 31 times in Week 3. With just 19 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
