Coach Talk

OnlyCams
Hey, we admire the confidence, OnlyCams. It takes moxie to deploy a starter with zero points (Tyler Boyd), while still getting the W.
Tua-finity & beyond
Unless Tua-finity & beyond wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough looks" won't cut it as an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, two TE) collectively got a hearty 29 targets in Week 15. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group reeled in only 16 catches.
