Coach Talk

REDSKINS
It cannot be overstated just how critical tight wins like this can be for team chemistry. Persevering through trials and tribulations, while succeeding in the face of adversity... expect the REDSKINS locker room to really gel riding into Week 17.
Charm City
With only one reception on three measly targets this past week, the starting RBs for Charm City should remind their quarterbacks to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
