Every week during the regular season we get an opportunity to talk with the opposing head coach via conference call. This week it was Jacksonville head coach Doug Marrone.

 

Here's what he had to say:

 

2. Marrone was asked about Detroit's offense and he went through the logical list of threats, but he particularly noted the play of Detroit's tight ends, especially T.J. Hockenson, who Marrone said "is really starting to come on" and having a "hell of a year."

 

Hockenson leads Detroit in receptions (15), receiving yards (180) and is tied for the team lead with two touchdown grabs. Jacksonville's allowed tight ends to catch 21 passes for 328 yards and four scores in five games this season.
