Coach Talk

Sonny's side hoe(;
Listen Sonny's side hoe(;, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than six points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through Week 10 stood at 122.53. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Sons of Repair
Unless Sons of Repair wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" isn't really an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 26 times in Week 11. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group tallied just 14 receptions.
