Coach Talk

Whackers
Good job assembling a lineup that netted 174.7 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. We should maintain this momentum as we step into our Week 15 matchup.
Arrogant Americans
"Not getting many looks" won't be a viable excuse this week for Arrogant Americans. Our six pass-catchers (five WR and one TE) collectively received a healthy 49 targets in Week 14. With just 24 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
