Coach Talk

Playboys
Hey, we admire the confidence, Playboys. Deploying a starter with zero points (Kenny Golladay), while still earning the W... talk about arrogant. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
methylated spirits
Unless methylated spirits wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" isn't really a viable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 28 times in Week 2. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they reeled in just 16 balls.
