Coach Talk

Ron Mexico
Wow, Ron Mexico, you put the rest of the league on notice with this blowout. Along with a 29.62-point victory, you also jumped up a couple of places in the league standings. Nice job!
The Pigs
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) combined to get a whopping 13 targets in Week 5. With only eight total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
