Coach Talk

Chitown Shot Callers
Nice job deploying a lineup that accounted for more than 149 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done.
Canes
Unless Canes wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" is not a reasonable excuse this week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 27 times in Week 16. With only 15 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
