Coach Talk

Indrid Cold
Mission accomplished, Indrid Cold. Assembling a lineup that tallied 100.46 points this past matchup. Let's maintain this momentum as we move on to our next challenge in Week 15.
Flash
"Not getting enough chances" isn't an excuse this week for Flash. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 28 times in Week 14. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group managed just 16 receptions.
