Coach Talk

Garoppolypse Now
Bravo, Garoppolypse Now. Nice work deploying a team that blew the competition out by a whopping 56 points this past week. Let's keep this momentum as we move on to what could be a winnable matchup in Week 3.
Wentz so Hard
Unless Wentz so Hard wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many chances" isn't really a reasonable excuse this time around. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 23 times in Week 2. With only 14 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
