Coach Talk

Rookie
Kudos on assembling a starting crew that exceeded the century mark this past week. We deem that to be a job done right.
Jake's Swag Team
"Not getting many opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for Jake's Swag Team. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 15. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group hauled in just 14 catches.
