Coach Talk

Stone Cold Bosstrin
Earning the win is most important, Stone Cold Bosstrin, but we've also identified one spot where we can improve as a team. Our starting running backs were clearly outplayed this past week. James White (28 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Mark Ingram (53 yards, one TD) combined for only 15.6 points in Week 14. Sony Michel and Ezekiel Elliott doubled us up with a score of 33.9. We need to bug the offensive coordinator to get some more touches in Week 15!
Rick-ishi
Unless Rick-ishi wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" can't be an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to see a whopping 32 targets in Week 14. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group notched just 17 receptions.
