Coach Talk

Team Mama Drama
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Team Mama Drama. It takes a certain sort of gumption to deploy, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Alshon Jeffery and Vance McDonald), while still earning the W.
Dalton's Crew
So, Dalton's Crew, did your pass-catchers drop too many balls in practice or something? With only 15 total targets this past week, our starting receiver crew (four WR, one TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
