Coach Talk

Brady Come Back
Hey, the key to football is finding and exploiting the mismatches, right? Case in point: we made that a point of emphasis by doubling up Tyreeks like ganja at running back this past week (35.3 points to 16.8).
Tyreeks like ganja
Unless Tyreeks like ganja wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 33 times in Week 13. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group tallied only 20 receptions.
