Coach Talk

Cleveland Browns
You know what, Cleveland Browns, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to start not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Jadeveon Clowney, Kadarius Toney, and Myles Garrett), while still getting the W. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it in the playoffs and we're finished.
Baltimore Ravens
Unless Baltimore Ravens wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough opportunities" is not an excuse this week. As a group, our seven pass-catchers (six WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 39 times in Week 4. With only 19 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
