Coach Talk

GloriouslyVictorious
Who really cares if your team ended up sliding from fourth place to fifth this past week... the important take-away here is that you won the matchup. Maintain focus like this and the results are sure to follow.
Finding Deebo
Unless Finding Deebo wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough looks" is definitely not a viable excuse this week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) combined to see a whopping 26 targets in Week 3. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group hauled in only 15 balls.
