Coach Talk

the ball breakers
Now that's what we call righting the ship... The GM of the ball breakers shrugged off their three-game winless skid by putting up a whopping 118.96 points this past week!
HUNGRY DOG
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and two TE) combined to receive a grand total of 19 targets in Week 15. With just eight total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
