Coach Talk

Sadie Holmes
Listen, Sadie Holmes, we do certainly admire the confidence. Starting not one, not two, but FOUR players with zero points while still earning the win... that's playing with fire.
West TN Mistakes (STR DV TRFR)
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively saw a respectable 20 targets in Week 16. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they tallied only 12 catches.
