Coach Talk

Arizona Golub
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Arizona Golub. Starting not one, not two, but FIVE players with zero points while still earning the W... talk about arrogant. All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be done.
Karol's Superb Team
Unless Karol's Superb Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough looks" is not a reasonable excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 34 targets in Week 10. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group pulled down only 17 catches.
