Coach Talk

Amanda's Great Team
Listen Amanda's Great Team, the good news is that we took this matchup by 6.58 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through Week 13 stood at 81.44. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Sacks in the City
Well, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 16 times in Week 14. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group tallied only 10 catches.
