Coach Talk

Maxdeflation
Mission accomplished, Maxdeflation. Putting together a lineup that logged 152.54 points this past matchup.
Slow Clap
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (five WR and one TE) collectively received a whopping 60 targets in Week 16. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group pulled down only 32 balls.
