Coach Talk

Vandals
Getting the win is most important, Vandals, but we certainly know of one spot where we can get stronger as a team. Our starting QB was significantly outmatched by the opposition. Cam Newton went 25-of-37 for 357 yards and three touchdowns for ExigentCircumstances, and all Ryan Fitzpatrick could manage was a 13-for-21 outing for 167 passing yards and three ugly interceptions. Let's work overtime to get on the same page with our receivers this week!
ExigentCircumstances
ExigentCircumstances may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 36 times in Week 11. With just 22 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
