Coach Talk

Fumble
Hey Fumble, the good news is that we won this matchup by over 39 points. Even better news is that we know we're better than this, as our scoring average through Week 7 stood at 133.01. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Castor Troy v25
Well, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 29 times in Week 8. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group recorded only 15 catches.
