Coach Talk

Closet of Hope-fuls
You know Closet of Hope-fuls, the good news is that we took this matchup by nearly 14 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this, as our scoring average through Week 5 stood at 116.36. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
MGKVSBRD
Unless MGKVSBRD wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 19 targets in Week 6. With just 10 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
