Coach Talk

Chavo GOAT Jr.
Hey, it's good to be confident, Chavo GOAT Jr.. Deploying a starter with zero points (Leonard Fournette), while still getting the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be toast.
The People’s Champ
Unless The People’s Champ wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough looks" is not an excuse this time around. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a respectable 23 targets in Week 16. With only 13 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
