Coach Talk

Eat Shit Caiden
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no way sugarcoat it, Eat Shit Caiden... our quarterback was clearly outclassed by the opposition. Justin Herbert went 26-of-35 for 317 yards and three touchdowns for Joey's Team, and all Derek Carr could manage was a 28-for-38 outing for 249 passing yards. Let's work overtime to get on the same page with our receivers this week!
Joey's Team
Unless Joey's Team wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough looks" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 31 times in Week 13. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group hauled in only 19 receptions.
