Coach Talk

Toxins
You know what, Toxins, we do admire the confidence. It takes guts to roll out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Robert Woods, Allen Robinson II, and the Los Angeles Rams defense), while still earning a W. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we're toast.
Owen Sixteen
Unless Owen Sixteen wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" is definitely not an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 23 times in Week 11. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they reeled in only 13 receptions.
