Coach Talk

FreshPrinceOfHelaire
Hey, it's good to be confident, FreshPrinceOfHelaire. Deploying a starter with zero points (Khari Willis), while still getting the win... that's borderline arrogant.
Aurelio O'Reallyo
Unless Aurelio O'Reallyo wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" isn't really a viable excuse this week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 16. With just 14 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
