Coach Talk

Heavy Doobage
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Heavy Doobage. It takes real gumption to deploy a player with zero points (Jerry Tillery), while still getting the win.
SteelerHater57
So, SteelerHater57, what'd your wideouts do to tick off their quarterbacks this week? Accumulating only 13 targets as a group in Week 16, our four wide receivers clearly need to get on their QBs' good sides this week in practice.
