Coach Talk

Black Knight
Well done, Black Knight. Deploying a starting crew that earned more than 460 points in Week 4. Let's keep this momentum going as we step into a tricky challenge in Week 5.
RT17
With just three receptions on five targets this past week, the starting RBs for RT17 should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to start checking down more often.
