Coach Talk

Arrogant Americans
Listen, Arrogant Americans, we do respect the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Chris Godwin), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire. Try those shenanigans next week and see what happens!
Roughnecks
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 33 times in Week 15. With just 20 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
