Coach Talk

Boomkanani ◇
Listen, Boomkanani ◇, we do certainly respect the confidence. It takes real gumption to play a starter with zero points (Eno Benjamin), while still getting the win. Try those shenanigans next week against HUGH JASSEL and see what happens.
Kookz
"Not getting many opportunities" won't fly as an excuse this week for Kookz. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 33 targets in Week 12. With just 19 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
