Coach Talk

Chris Christie
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Chris Christie! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve... our running backs were thoroughly outplayed this past week. Royce Freeman (eight yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Sony Michel (59 yards, no TDs) combined for just 7.7 points in Week 15. Phillip Lindsay and Nick Chubb doubled us up with a score of 18.4. We need to put some more effort into scouting these upcoming defenses!
Pretty Smile
Three wide receivers, two running backs, one tight end, zero touchdowns: The six starting offensive skill players on Pretty Smile combined to record a whopping 409 total yards. No one from that group was able to find paydirt in Week 15.
