Coach Talk

New York Jets
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, New York Jets. It's a bold move to start a player with zero points (Xavier McKinney), while still getting the W! We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we're toast.
Tennessee Titans
Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: As a group, the starting backfield for Tennessee Titans collectively logged only three targets this past week. Tell those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 12!
