Coach Talk

Daks a lot
These types of tight wins are super critical for locker room chemistry. Persevering in the face of adversity and triumphing as a tight-knit unit... expect Daks a lot to carry some serious momentum into Week 6.
Believeland
Unless Believeland wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough chances" can't be an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) combined to receive a respectable 30 targets in Week 5. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they reeled in just 16 receptions.
