Coach Talk

Bignuts
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Bignuts. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Jamaal Williams), while still getting the W. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be finished.
BucTowN
Yo, BucTowN, what did your receivers do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? Accumulating just five targets as a group in Week 14, our three wide receivers clearly need to get the attention of their respective offensive coordinators this week in practice.
