Coach Talk

Prince of Helaire
Narrow wins like this can be paramount for team chemistry. Persevering through trials and tribulations, while succeeding in the face of adversity... expect the Prince of Helaire locker room to really gel entering Week 15.
Scott's Team
Our starting QB tossed three interceptions and just a single touchdown? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape: Were the Chargers truly that good against the pass, or did Matt Ryan seem rattled back there in the pocket? What do you think, Scott's Team, do we continue to start him with confidence?
