Coach Talk

Nick's Notable Team
Whoa, that Chargers defense didn't see it coming! 23 completions on 27 attempts... good enough for an 85 percent completion percentage for Dak Prescott. We know the GM of Nick's Notable Team is appreciative of the attention to detail.
Monqueef
Monqueef will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 2. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group notched only 10 receptions.
