Coach Talk

Philly Phresh
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Philly Phresh! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve. Our QB was utterly outplayed by the opposition. Aaron Rodgers went 24-of-34 for 325 yards and two touchdowns for KC Chiefs 0-5 Start, and all Deshaun Watson could muster was a 20-for-30 day, with 163 yards and one passing TD. Let's work overtime to get on the same page with our receivers this week!
