Coach Talk

Terminators
Listen, Terminators, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to play not one, not two, but FOUR starters with zero points while still getting the W. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Dalton's Crew and see what happens!
Hard Knockers
Hard Knockers may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 47 times in Week 6. Chemistry could be a problem, as that group reeled in only 26 balls.
