Coach Talk

Raided Timbers
Hey, it's good to be confident, Raided Timbers. It takes real guts to roll out a starter with zero points (Dan Bailey), while still earning the W. Try those shenanigans next week and we'll be toast.
TreBrtnNiteBrBefrXms
TreBrtnNiteBrBefrXms will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 39 targets in Week 3. With only 20 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
