Coach Talk

Houston Slab Riders
Listen Houston Slab Riders, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than 12 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this, as our scoring average through 12 weeks was 108.82. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
MAGA 4
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) combined to see a whopping 13 targets in Week 13. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group reeled in only five receptions.
