Coach Talk

OUT in Turtle Town
You know what, OUT in Turtle Town, we do certainly admire the confidence. It takes gumption to deploy a player with zero points (Alshon Jeffery), while still getting the win. All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be done.
Scott Hors d'oeuvres
Welp, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and three TE) collectively received a grand total of 26 targets in Week 2. With only 16 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
