Coach Talk

Suck My Dak
Creating mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Thanks to a solid showing by Drew Brees, we utterly dominated Davante's Inferno at the quarterback position this past week (41.78 points to 16.46). Brees breezed through the Colts defense by logging 307 yards and four passing touchdowns.
Davante's Inferno
Unless Davante's Inferno wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough chances" is not an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to see a grand total of 29 targets in Week 15. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group reeled in just 17 balls.
