Coach Talk

Sorry Eiferted
You know Sorry Eiferted, the good news is that we took this matchup by over zero points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this, as our scoring average through Week 14 stood at 159.95. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
The Soulja
Unless The Soulja wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 23 times in Week 15. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group notched just 14 receptions.
