Coach Talk

Karcass City Creeps
Innovative play design and countless hours in the film room. Blood, sweat, and tears in practice. Full attention from all 11 guys in the huddle. Each and every route, every single throw, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. And the final result? A whopping 23 connections on 28 attempts... good enough for a completion percentage of 82 percent for Josh Allen this past week. The Saints secondary didn't see it coming!.
Badass Ballers
Unless Badass Ballers wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" can't be an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, two TE) collectively got a hearty 20 targets in Week 12. With just 10 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
