Coach Talk

Lucky Seven
Hey, we admire the confidence, Lucky Seven. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Marquez Valdes-Scantling), while still getting a W.
Renegades
Unless Renegades wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many looks" won't cut it as an excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively received a respectable 28 targets in Week 16. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they recorded just 17 catches.
