Coach Talk

Boom in the Endzone
Hey, now that's what we love to see! A solid 25 completions on 29 attempts for Ben Roethlisberger this past week. Quality plus quantity! That Raiders secondary didn't stand a chance! We know the GM of Boom in the Endzone is grateful for this type of efficiency and attention to detail.
KGG FB 2018
Unless KGG FB 2018 wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough looks" isn't really a reasonable excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to receive a healthy 29 targets in Week 14. With only 11 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
