Coach Talk

No Soup For You!
Listen No Soup For You!, the good news is that we took this matchup by almost nine points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through four weeks was 122.01. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
My QB is Blk-No Kaep
Unless My QB is Blk-No Kaep wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" cannot be an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 33 times in Week 5. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group pulled down just 18 catches.
