Coach Talk

Brady or Bust
You know what, Brady or Bust, we do appreciate the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Devin Funchess), while still earning the W... that's borderline arrogant. Try those shenanigans next week and we'll be toast.
Titans
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 30 targets in Week 15. With only 16 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
