Coach Talk

Kenny's Pickett Fence
Hey, we admire the confidence, Kenny's Pickett Fence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Alec Pierce), while still getting the win... that's playing with fire. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Lynx and see what happens!
VIKES
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 29 times in Week 12. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group recorded only 16 receptions.
