Coach Talk

Hey Darnold
Nice work, Hey Darnold. Fielding a starting crew that tallied 218.77 points in Week 9. Let's maintain this momentum as we move on to what could be a favorable Week 10 matchup.
ShoNuff
Unless ShoNuff wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" is not an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 24 targets in Week 9. With just 14 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
