Coach Talk

Taking Names & Kicking Bass
Infinite hours in the film room. Innovative scheming from the coaching staff. Blood, sweat, and tears in training camp and in practice. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Every single route, every single throw, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. And the outcome? A staggering 20 completions on 22 attempts... good enough for a 91% completion percentage for Trevor Lawrence this past week. The Colts secondary didn't see it coming!.
Death From Above
With four catches on only five targets this past week, the starting RBs for Death From Above should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to dump it off more often.
