Coach Talk

gilligan
Good job assembling a lineup that produced more than 585 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. We should maintain this momentum as we roll into our Week 15 matchup.
Wrongway Feldman
Unless Wrongway Feldman wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" can't be a reasonable excuse this time around. Our five pass-catchers (three WR, two TE) were targeted a grand total of 32 times in Week 14. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 19 balls.
