Coach Talk

Agent Orange
Listen, Agent Orange, we do certainly admire the confidence. It takes a special sort of guts to deploy a starter with zero points (Montez Sweat), while still earning a win. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against TENN and we'll be toast.
They Might Be Giants
Talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for They Might Be Giants collectively logged just two receptions on five targets this past week.
