Coach Talk

Koo and the Gang
You know Koo and the Gang, the good news is that we took this matchup by more than 35 points. Even better news is that we've proven we're stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 7 stood at 115.73. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
E.T. was a Jedi👽
Welp, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 29 times in Week 8. With only 11 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
