Coach Talk

Can I Haz Touchdown?
Nice work assembling a starting crew that won by an impressive 53 points this past week. We took care of business and did what we needed to do. Let's keep this momentum as we move on to what ought to be a favorable matchup in Week 8.
Well Oiled Machine
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 21 targets in Week 7. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 13 receptions.
