Coach Talk

Tin Cup
Nice job deploying a lineup that posted almost 119 points this past week. We did what we needed to do and took care of business. We should keep this momentum going as we head into our Week 6 matchup.
Wilfork on 1st Date
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 42 targets in Week 5. Chemistry seems to be the primary problem, as that group notched just 20 receptions.
