Coach Talk

Bruce's Team
Good work, Bruce's Team. Deploying a lineup that won by 17.54 points this past week... let's keep this momentum going as we step into our next matchup in Week 16.
Goin' Hoggin'
Your starting QB threw one interception and literally zero touchdowns? I guess we've stumbled upon a fork in the road here: Was Drew Brees actually that off-rhythm with his receivers, or was the Panthers secondary just that stout against the pass? This judgment is yours to cast... Goin' Hoggin', as you manage your lineup in Week 16 and beyond!
