Coach Talk

Two Gurleys One Kupp
Getting the win is most important, Two Gurleys One Kupp, but we've also identified one spot where we should get stronger as a team; our starting quarterback was significantly outclassed by the opposition. Philip Rivers went 26-of-38 for 313 yards and two touchdowns for But I Always Win, and all Drew Brees could produce was a 23-for-35 day for 203 passing yards. Let's work overtime to get on the same page with our receivers this week!
But I Always Win
"Not seeing enough chances" won't cut it as an excuse this week for But I Always Win. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 19 times in Week 15. With only nine total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
