Coach Talk

VIKES
Nice work assembling a starting crew that posted nearly 142 points this past week. We took care of business and did what we needed to do. Let's keep this momentum going as we move on to our next matchup in Week 5.
Kenny's Pickett Fence
Our quarterback threw an interception and not a single touchdown? I suppose we're presented with a couple of options here: Was Mitch Trubisky actually that out-of-sync with his receivers, or were the Jets just that strong against the pass? What do you think, Kenny's Pickett Fence, do we continue to start him with confidence?
