Coach Talk

Xtra Pointz
Deploying a starting crew that netted 151.62 points this past week... we did what was needed and took care of business. Let's maintain this momentum as we head into our Week 13 matchup.
C Kupp
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (five WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 37 times in Week 12. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group managed just 20 receptions.
