Coach Talk

Hood Court Hooligans
Listen, Hood Court Hooligans, we do certainly respect the confidence. Playing a starter with zero points (Nick Folk), while still getting the win... that's playing with fire! All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we'll be toast.
Arizona Mini Teeth
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively saw a healthy 31 targets in Week 16. With only 19 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
