Coach Talk

Saquan Deez Nuts
Listen Saquan Deez Nuts, we're glass-half-full kind of coaches. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped recently, we'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 112.7 points through Week 14, our crew has definitely proven that it's even stronger than the 81.22 we needed to win this past week!
Team 6 250
Team 6 250 may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 18 targets in Week 15. Chemistry appears to be a problem, as that group recorded only 10 catches.
