Coach Talk

Yosef's Team
You know what, Yosef's Team, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to roll out a starter with zero points (Le'Veon Bell), while still getting a W! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we're toast.
Chris' Team
Yo, Chris' Team, did your receiving crew drop too many balls in practice or something? Seeing only 16 total targets in Week 14, our four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) clearly got on their respective QBs' bad sides.
