Coach Talk

The Funk
We do respect the confidence this past week, The Funk. It takes gumption to roll out a player with zero points (Alshon Jeffery), while still earning a W. All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it in the postseason and we'll be finished.
Game of Jones
Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound. As a group, the starting RBs for Game of Jones collectively logged only four targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to set up a couple of screen plays in Week 6!
