Coach Talk

The Real Untouchables
Bravo on deploying a lineup that tallied 133.48 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done.
Pistols Firing
"Not seeing enough looks" can't be an excuse this week for Pistols Firing. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 27 times in Week 15. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group reeled in just 12 balls.
