Coach Talk

Boomtown
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a awesome performance from Andrew Luck, we doubled up tatetoke at the quarterback position this past week (31.56 points to 15.5). Luck went 27-for-41 for 399 yards, two TDs, and an INT in a 24-21 triumph over the Texans.
tatetoke
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 37 times in Week 14. With just 22 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
