Coach Talk

Audrey's Genius Team
Getting the win is most important, Audrey's Genius Team, but we've also identified one spot where we can get better as a team: our quarterback was clearly outmatched by the opposition. Josh Allen went 24-of-35 for 417 yards and four touchdowns for WHO DAT?, while Ben Roethlisberger was 29-of-41 for 311 passing yards, two scores, and an ugly interception. Let's do our best to win this positional battle next week!
WHO DAT?
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a whopping 26 targets in Week 2. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group pulled down just 15 receptions.
