Coach Talk

Dianna's Team
Listen, Dianna's Team, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes a special sort of moxie to play a starter with zero points (Rob Gronkowski), while still earning the W. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be toast.
Waffles552's Team
Unless Waffles552's Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many chances" isn't really a viable excuse this week. Our three wide receivers were targeted a healthy 21 times in Week 16. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group pulled down only 12 balls.
