Coach Talk

Alouiscious
Hey, we admire the confidence, Alouiscious. Deploying a starter with zero points (Nick Folk), while still earning the win... that's borderline arrogant! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
🏈Gridiron & Wine 🍷
🏈Gridiron & Wine 🍷 may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 25 targets in Week 16. With just 15 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
