Coach Talk

4-Ace's
Well 4-Ace's, the good news is that we won this matchup by 6.57 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this, as our scoring average through nine weeks was 131.48. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Sepulcher of Doom
"Not getting many chances" really isn't an excuse this week for Sepulcher of Doom. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 19 times in Week 10. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group notched only eight receptions.
