Coach Talk

Da Bear Minimum
You know Da Bear Minimum, the good news is that we won this matchup by almost nine points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through 14 weeks was 130.75. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
PR's Perfect Team
Well, we can't really whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 19 times in Week 15. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they notched only eight receptions.
