Aaron it out pulled out to a 4.32-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind James Conner (19.1 points) and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense (19) and never gave it back.

Coach Talk

Aaron it out
Whoa, Aaron it out, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this shellacking. Not only did you win by 37 points, you also climbed two spots in the league standings!
Eat it!
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) collectively got a whopping 19 targets in Week 2. With just 10 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
