Coach Talk

INDY'S ISLAND
Well INDY'S ISLAND, the good news is that we took this matchup by 6 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through 14 weeks was 168.69. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
AWOLS TEXANS
The problem this week isn't exactly rocket science, AWOLS TEXANS. Choosing to start Aaron Jones and Aldrick Rosas in a tough fantasy matchup... let's use this as an opportunity to get better and all agree that it won't happen again?
