Coach Talk

Whalers
Listen, Whalers, we do certainly admire the confidence. It takes a special kind of guts to start a player with zero points (Alshon Jeffery), while still getting the win. Try those shenanigans next week against Roland's KaTet and see what happens!
Champ Is Here
Unless Champ Is Here wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many chances" is definitely not an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, two TE) combined to see a whopping 30 targets in Week 12. With just 17 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
