Coach Talk
H-block
Hey, we admire the confidence, H-block. It's a bold move to roll out a player with zero points (Joey Bosa), while still earning the win. Try those shenanigans next week against Bad JuJu and we're sure to be toast!
RedZone
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 23 targets in Week 12. With just 14 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
