Coach Talk

Caleb’s WrLd
Listen, Caleb’s WrLd, we applaud you on the confidence. Starting a player with negative points (the Detroit Lions defense) while still getting a win... that's playing with fire. All we ask is to please keep those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Oh Saquan You See
Oh Saquan You See will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 23 times in Week 16. Chemistry could be the primary issue, as that group pulled down only 12 receptions.
