Coach Talk

Hey Darnold!
A lot of cake, no icing: The six offensive position starters (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) on Hey Darnold! combined to register a healthy 410 total yards. Not one of those players managed to find the end zone in Week 4.
Joel's Father
Registering only four targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Joel's Father should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to dump it off more often.
