Coach Talk

WarHorse
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no way sugarcoat it, WarHorse. Our wide receivers were significantly outplayed by the opposition. Held back by Danny Amendola (30 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Sterling Shepard (37 yards, no TDs), our four WRs combined for only 28.28 points in Week 15. The starting wideouts for THE SHIT Squad doubled us up with a score of 69.1. We need to bounce back with a big statement in Week 16!
THE SHIT Squad
With only two catches on five targets this past week, the starting RBs for THE SHIT Squad clearly should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
