Coach Talk

King Of The Hill
Only three makes on five field goal tries? Seems like Joey Slye might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
HowAboutCowboys
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 30 times in Week 6. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they recorded just 18 catches.
