Coach Talk

We Pack the Meat
Hey We Pack the Meat, the good news is that we took this matchup by 55 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 12 stood at 222.94. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
country roads
"Not seeing many chances" won't fly as an excuse this week for country roads. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 32 targets in Week 13. Those players should spend extra practice time working with their QBs, considering they pulled down only 16 balls.
