Coach Talk

LynShanahanigans
Infinite hours in the film room. Innovative scheming from the Offensive Coordinator. Blood, sweat, and tears in training camp and in practice. Full attention from all 11 guys in the huddle. Each and every route, every single pass, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. The final result? A superb 25 connections on 29 attempts... good enough for a 86 percent completion percentage for Mitchell Trubisky this past week. The 49ers secondary didn't see it coming!.
Vtown Rookie
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 26 targets in Week 16. With just 16 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
