Coach Talk

Atlanta Koala Bears
Props to you, Atlanta Koala Bears. Good work deploying a team that registered nearly 160 points this past matchup. We should maintain this momentum as we move on to what could be a winnable Week 15 matchup.
run to daylight
Unless run to daylight wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many opportunities" is definitely not an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catchers (one WR and one TE) collectively received a grand total of 10 targets in Week 14. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group reeled in just six catches.
