Coach Talk

sbmurks
Close wins like this can be super important for locker room chemistry. Persevering through the toughest of times and succeeding in the face of adversity... look for sbmurks to carry some serious vibes into Week 17.
Hilltoppers
"Not seeing enough looks" can't be an excuse this week for Hilltoppers. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 29 targets in Week 16. With just 17 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
