Coach Talk

LeveonBellNevrPlayed
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's somewhat excusable to go 0-for-2: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the Finals. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Chris Boswell might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after that sort of effort.
V-Lo Brown
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 32 times in Week 14. With only 19 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
