Coach Talk

Win or die trying
Listen Win or die trying, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 212.16 points through Week 13, our crew has certainly proven that it's even better than the 176.26 we needed for this past week's win!
Henrything Is Possible
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our six pass-catchers (five WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 15 times in Week 14. With just nine total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
