Coach Talk

Go Team
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Go Team. It takes gumption to deploy a starter with zero points (JuJu Smith-Schuster), while still getting the W.
Calli the clueless
"Not getting many looks" really isn't an excuse this week for Calli the clueless. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a healthy 31 targets in Week 15. With just 19 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
