Coach Talk

Booster shot
Hey, it's good to be confident, Booster shot. It takes a special sort of moxie to start a player with zero points (Damien Harris), while still getting a win! We just ask you to please keep 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?
The Boss
"Not seeing enough looks" won't fly as an excuse this week for The Boss. As a group, our three wide receivers were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 14. With only 10 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
