Coach Talk

Liquor Wrecked’ Em
Hey, we admire the confidence, Liquor Wrecked’ Em. Deploying a player with zero points (David Njoku), while still getting a W... that's playing with fire. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Romaine Pettis
Unless Romaine Pettis wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 2. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 11 receptions.
