Coach Talk

Sharks
You know Sharks, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's decreased a bit recently, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 476.49 points through Week 5, our crew has certainly proven that it's even better than the 386.29 we needed for this past week's win!
Black Knight
Talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting RBs for Black Knight collectively logged one catch on only two targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up some screen plays in Week 7!
