Coach Talk

Bye Week
Nice job assembling a lineup that produced more than 111 points this past week. We did what we needed to do and took care of business.
Rigbones's Team
With just three receptions this past week, the starting RBs for Rigbones's Team should remind their QBs to start checking down more often (and dial up a screen play or two).
