Coach Talk

jason's Team
You know jason's Team, we're glass-half-full kind of coaches. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has declined a bit recently, we'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 109.63 points through Week 14, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outproducing the 90.8 we needed to win this past week!
Chicken Dinner
Hey now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: As a group, the starting RBs for Chicken Dinner collectively registered only three catches on five targets this past week. Get those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 16!
