Coach Talk

Pickles
Nice job, Pickles. Kudos on assembling a starting crew that scored in the triple digits in Week 6. Let's keep this momentum going as we step into what's sure to be a particularly challenging matchup in Week 7.
The Foxx Force
Unless The Foxx Force wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many chances" is definitely not an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 35 times in Week 6. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group reeled in just 16 catches.
