Coach Talk

The Stinky Caudillos
Only one field goal on three attempts? Seems like Justin Tucker might have just kicked himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
Dalvin and the Chipmunks
Unless Dalvin and the Chipmunks wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough opportunities" isn't really a valid excuse this week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively received a respectable 28 targets in Week 15. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they notched only 17 catches.
