Coach Talk

It’s a Dak Attack!
I just can't overemphasize how critical tight victories like this can be for locker room chemistry. Persevering through trials and tribulations, and succeeding in the face of adversity... expect It’s a Dak Attack! to carry some serious vibes into Week 16.
Awesomeness Defending Champion
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our two wide receivers combined to get a grand total of 22 targets in Week 15. With just 10 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
