Coach Talk

Alex Le's Team
Innovative play design and countless hours in the film room. Blood, sweat, and tears on the practice field. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Every single route, every single throw, drawn up meticulously and executed flawlessly. And the final result? A superb 18 connections on 22 attempts... good enough for a 82% completion percentage for Baker Mayfield this past week. The Panthers secondary didn't know what hit 'em!.
BaLLCHiNiaNzzz
Wait, our starting QB threw three interceptions and just a single touchdown? It might be good to go back and review the game tape: Did Mitchell Trubisky appear rattled back there in the pocket, or were the Rams just that strong against the pass? This is the sort of judgment you'll have to make, BaLLCHiNiaNzzz, as you deploy your lineup for Week 15 and beyond!
