Here’s what head coach Dennis Allen, quarterback Andy Dalton, tight end Juwan Johnson, and their teammates are saying after exiting Week 15 with a win:
Dennis Allen opened press conference talking about Falcons DC Dean Pees, who was injured before game.

Dennis Allen on whether or not there was a concerted effort to get Kamara more touches today:
"Yeah, and touches in a few different ways. And I think we gotta continue to try to figure out creative ways to get him the ball, do some things with him. And let him affect the game."

Bradley Roby on Alontae Taylor, "I'm proud of him." Said he spoke with Taylor ahead of the season as he was dealing with injury. "When you get out there, you'll make plays."

Still wild that #Saints WR Rashid Shaheed never ran a formal 40-yard dash. Told us today that he believes he'd be in the 4.3 range. Certainly looks like it.
