Coach Talk

San Francisco 49ers
Well San Francisco 49ers, the good news is that we took this matchup by nearly 14 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're better than this, as our scoring average through three weeks was 277.81. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Jacksonville Jaguars
Unless Jacksonville Jaguars wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our six pass-catchers (five WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 59 targets in Week 4. With just 35 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
