Coach Talk

Next season champ
Wow, the Colts defense didn't see it coming! 29 connections on 30 attempts: good enough for a 97% completion percentage for Drew Brees. We know the GM of Next season champ is appreciative of that attention to detail.
CHANGOS
So, CHANGOS, did your pass-catchers drop too many balls in practice or something? Accumulating only 10 total targets this past week, our starting receiver crew (two WR, one TE) clearly need to get the attention of their respective QBs this week in practice.
