Coach Talk

My Team
Deploying a starting crew that posted nearly 811 points this past week... we did what we needed to do and took care of business.
Pogues Mahone
So, Pogues Mahone, did your receiving crew drop too many balls in practice or something? With only 17 total targets this past week, our five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) clearly need to get on their QBs' good sides this week in practice.
