Coach Talk

Turn ur head n Goff
Narrow wins like this can be paramount for team chemistry. Overcoming tough obstacles and persevering in the face of adversity... expect the Turn ur head n Goff locker room to really gel riding into Week 13.
Boston TE Party
Shucks, the blame for this narrow loss can be placed more heavily on the Texans coaches than on the quarterback. The gameplan against the Titans resulted in the QB attempting only 24 passes. Deshaun Watson did what he could, connecting on a staggering 79% of them!
