Coach Talk

The Real Slim Brady
Nice job overcoming that three-game losing skid, The Real Slim Brady! Every fantasy team is faced with adversity at some point or another... keep on truckin' and good things will continue to happen.
Flaming Aces
Unless Flaming Aces wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" is definitely not a viable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 17 times in Week 13. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group recorded just 10 catches.
