Coach Talk

Doughboys
Countless hours in the film room. Innovative play design from the Offensive Coordinator. Blood, sweat, and tears in training camp and in practice. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Every single route, every single throw, drawn up meticulously and executed to perfection. And the final result? A whopping 31 connections on 35 attempts... good enough for a completion percentage of 89% for Russell Wilson this past week. The Falcons secondary didn't stand a chance!.
SAWTOOTHS
Welp, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 34 times in Week 1. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group reeled in just 20 catches.
