Coach Talk

KC Chefs
Listen, KC Chefs, we do appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Hunter Henry), while still getting a win! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Chasing OJ
Chasing OJ will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 20 times in Week 13. With just 12 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
