Coach Talk

brad's Swag Team
You know brad's Swag Team, the good news is that we took this matchup by 17.56 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're better than this, as our scoring average through Week 12 stood at 115.32. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
sam's Team
"Not seeing enough opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for sam's Team. Our three wide receivers combined to get a respectable 19 targets in Week 13. With only nine total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
