Coach Talk

Jaymin
Hey Jaymin, the good news is that we won this matchup by almost one points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 6 stood at 199.76. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Eggy’s Power
Unless Eggy’s Power wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough chances" is not a viable excuse this week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 7. With only 16 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
