Coach Talk

Harry P. Ness
Listen, Harry P. Ness, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Starting not one, but TWO players with zero points (Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Lamar Jackson), while still earning the win... talk about arrogant. We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're finished.
Nuk Skywalker
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our three wide receivers were targeted a respectable 18 times in Week 16. Chemistry could be a problem, as that group pulled down only nine balls.
