Coach Talk

ghost to the post
Well done, ghost to the post. Deploying a team that netted more than 86 points this past week. We should keep this momentum going as we step into a tricky challenge in Week 6.
RiSeN!
Unless RiSeN! wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many looks" cannot be a reasonable excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 30 times in Week 5. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group reeled in just 16 receptions.
