Coach Talk

C-Unit
Listen C-Unit, we're glass-half-full kind of coaches. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped lately, we'll choose to take the high road. Averaging 134.63 points through Week 14, our crew has certainly proven that it's even stronger than the 136.02 we needed for this past week's win!
The Pink Flamingos
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 25 times in Week 15. With just 15 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
