Coach Talk

Las Vegas Raiders
Well, we do respect the confidence this past week, Las Vegas Raiders. Rolling out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (John Ross III, Rob Gronkowski, and Rock Ya-Sin), while still earning the win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be finished.
Philadelphia Eagles
Registering just one measly target this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Philadelphia Eagles should look into why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
