Coach Talk

FAT ZEKE
Whoa, FAT ZEKE, you put the rest of the league on notice with this blowout. Along with a 33.42-point victory, you also climbed from seventh place to fifth in the league standings!
Tua the Rescue
Unless Tua the Rescue wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" is not an excuse this week. Our two wide receivers were targeted a whopping 11 times in Week 4. With only seven total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
