Coach Talk

2Sexy2Lose
Listen 2Sexy2Lose, we're "glass half full" kind of coaches. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped recently, we'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 135.71 points through Week 14, our crew has obviously proven that it's even stronger than the 141.59 we needed for this past week's win!
Madden Legend
"Not seeing enough looks" really isn't an excuse this week for Madden Legend. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 20 times in Week 15. With just 12 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
