Coach Talk
Deez Nuts
Props on deploying a starting crew that got to triple digits this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. We should keep this momentum rolling as we move on to our next challenge in Week 16.
SacTown Amputaters
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR and two TE) were targeted a whopping 26 times in Week 15. With just 13 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
