Coach Talk

We Pack the Meat
Listen, We Pack the Meat, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes a special kind of guts to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Tre'Davious White and Derrick Henry), while still getting a W. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we're finished.
Chill Pill
"Not getting many opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for Chill Pill. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 30 times in Week 16. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group recorded only 18 receptions.
