Coach Talk

Pit Steelers (ZS)
Listen, Pit Steelers (ZS), we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Playing not one, not two, but THREE starters with zero points (Diontae Johnson, Chase Claypool, and Ben Roethlisberger), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we're toast.
Cleveland Browns
Unless Cleveland Browns wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" isn't really an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 10. With just 14 total catches, this group may have some chemistry issues.
