Coach Talk

IT Ballers
Just two field goals on four attempts? It's quite possible that Joey Slye just kicked himself back into the free agent pool after this performance.
OLD SCHOOL BADASSES
Unless OLD SCHOOL BADASSES wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 32 times in Week 12. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group pulled down only 18 balls.
