Coach Talk

Chicago Bears
Whoa, Chicago Bears, you got friends at SpaceX or something? Not only did you win by almost 69 points, you also skyrocketed up to 13th place in the league standings. Nice job!
Baltimore Ravens
Whoa now, talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting backfield for Baltimore Ravens collectively recorded one catch on just two measly targets this past week. Instruct those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 6!
