Coach Talk

The mystery machine
We can't overstate just how important close wins like this can be for the locker room. Persevering in the face of adversity and triumphing as a tight-knit group... expect the The mystery machine team chemistry to be sky-high entering Week 11.
Mr big puff
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 27 targets in Week 10. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group pulled down just 14 balls.
