Coach Talk

Dixie Normas
Hey, we admire the confidence, Dixie Normas. It takes a certain kind of moxie to start, not one, but TWO players with zero points (DeAndre Hopkins and Trey Sermon), while still earning the W.
98 DarkPink Balloons
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) combined to see a grand total of 44 targets in Week 15. With just 26 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
