Coach Talk

TOUCH DOWN MY PANTS
Hey, we admire the confidence, TOUCH DOWN MY PANTS. Deploying a player with zero points (Marquise Goodwin), while still earning the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be done.
Finkle & Einhorn
Unless Finkle & Einhorn wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" can't be an excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 17 targets in Week 16. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they reeled in just eight balls.
