Coach Talk

ATL Steel Town
You know what, ATL Steel Town, we do certainly admire the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Mo Alie-Cox), while still earning the win... that's borderline arrogant. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Jonathan Taylor ThomasHome Imp and we're sure to be toast.
Where’s Warren
Unless Where’s Warren wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" isn't really a reasonable excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) collectively saw a hearty 17 targets in Week 6. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group hauled in only seven catches.
