Coach Talk

SPACEGOAT
Hey, it's good to be confident, SPACEGOAT. It takes a certain kind of moxie to deploy a player with zero points (Dan Bailey), while still getting the win. Try those shenanigans next week and we'll be toast.
Unstoppable
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a respectable 28 targets in Week 3. With just 17 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
