Coach Talk

Mutinous Apes
You know what, Mutinous Apes, we do certainly respect the confidence. It takes real gumption to play a starter with zero points (Cole Kmet), while still getting a win. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Do it in the playoffs and we're finished.
SAWTOOTHS
"Not seeing many chances" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for SAWTOOTHS. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) collectively got a healthy 39 targets in Week 2. With just 21 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
