Coach Talk

The Equalizer
Hey, it's good to be confident, The Equalizer. It's a bold move to deploy a player with zero points (Terry McLaurin), while still earning the win. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it in the playoffs and we'll be toast.
Doom
"Not seeing many opportunities" won't fly as an excuse this week for Doom. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 33 times in Week 14. With only 20 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
