Coach Talk

Apollo
Listen Apollo, the good news is that we won this matchup by 56.62 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're stronger than this, as our scoring average through 11 weeks was 210.02. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
jbml
Unless jbml wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" isn't really a viable excuse this time around. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 25 targets in Week 12. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they reeled in just 14 catches.
