Coach Talk

7
Hey 7, the good news is that we took this matchup by more than 10 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through Week 13 stood at 111.84. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Steeler Power 3
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 22 times in Week 14. Chemistry seems to be the primary problem, as that group notched just 12 catches.
