Coach Talk

AustinMidgetKickers
Listen AustinMidgetKickers, the good news is that we took this matchup by 1.76 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 13 stood at 155.53. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Foti9ers
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 16 targets in Week 14. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group notched only eight catches.
