Coach Talk

Roylinc
Wow, the Dolphins defense didn't know what hit 'em! 30 completions on 37 attempts: good enough for a 81 percent completion percentage for Andrew Luck. We know the GM of Roylinc is appreciative of the attention to detail.
Mcdulldfx
Unless Mcdulldfx wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 24 times in Week 12. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they tallied only 14 catches.
