Coach Talk

Cowboys
Kudos to you, Cowboys. Fielding a starting crew that won by over 27 points in Week 10. We should keep this momentum going as we head into our next matchup in Week 11.
5Fingers2YoFace
Unless 5Fingers2YoFace wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many chances" can't be an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and two TE) were targeted a whopping 33 times in Week 10. Chemistry seems to be the primary problem, as that group recorded just 17 catches.
