Coach Talk

CornHub
Countless hours in the film room and on the practice field. Full attention from all 11 guys in the huddle. Each and every route, every single throw, planned meticulously and executed to perfection. And the final result? A superb 20 completions on 24 attempts: good enough for an 83% completion percentage for Joe Burrow this past week. That Steelers secondary didn't see it coming!.
Oregon Reing
"Not seeing enough chances" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Oregon Reing. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 32 targets in Week 12. With only 17 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
