Coach Talk

34 A Kupp K9
Hey, we admire the confidence, 34 A Kupp K9. Playing a starter with zero points (Travon Walker), while still earning the win... that's borderline arrogant.
Grizzlies
Grizzlies will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 36 targets in Week 15. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group pulled down only 22 receptions.
