Coach Talk

#Dadbods
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, #Dadbods. Playing a starter with zero points (James Conner), while still earning the win... that's borderline cocky.
Vick's Electric Dogs
Well, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a whopping 25 targets in Week 14. With just nine total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
