Coach Talk

A Taste of the Herb
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no other way for us to spin this, A Taste of the Herb: our quarterbacks were thoroughly outplayed this past week. Our two signal-callers combined for only 15.04 points in Week 15, while the QBs for Yo mama said U Ugly nearly tripled us up with a score of 42.18.
Yo mama said U Ugly
Unless Yo mama said U Ugly wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough chances" isn't really a viable excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 33 times in Week 15. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they reeled in just 20 receptions.
