Coach Talk

Billsrback
Assembling a lineup that won by more than 37 points this past week... we did what was needed and took care of business.
One--Eyed--Willie
"Not getting many chances" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week for One--Eyed--Willie. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 32 times in Week 15. Chemistry could be a problem, as that group pulled down only 18 receptions.
