Coach Talk

CeeDeez Nuts
Assembling a lineup that accounted for 127.54 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. Let's keep this momentum going as we move on to what's sure to be a particularly difficult matchup in Week 6.
A YoungHoeFoo
Unless A YoungHoeFoo wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" can't be a viable excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to see a grand total of 18 targets in Week 5. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they hauled in only nine catches.
