Coach Talk

SpongeBills
Listen SpongeBills, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 130.52 points through Week 5, our crew has obviously proven that it's even stronger than the 102.98 we needed to win this past week!
JacksON JacksOFF
Unless JacksON JacksOFF wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough looks" isn't really an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 6. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in just eight catches.
