Coach Talk

KGG 2022
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, KGG 2022. Our quarterback was utterly outclassed this past week. Lamar Jackson went 21-of-29 for 318 yards and three touchdowns for Melonville LaRues, and all Derek Carr could manage through the air was 252 yards and two passing TDs. Let's put some more effort into studying those playbooks!
Melonville LaRues
Unless Melonville LaRues wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively received a healthy 18 targets in Week 2. With just 11 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
