Coach Talk

Mayor of Evansville
Football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by almost tripling Bill O'Brien at the wide receiver position (38 points to 13.2).
Bill O'Brien
"Not seeing many opportunities" isn't a valid excuse this week for Bill O'Brien. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) combined to receive a healthy 18 targets in Week 15. With only nine total receptions, that group may have some chemistry issues.
