Coach Talk

Fük Mike Riley
Hey Fük Mike Riley, the good news is that we won this matchup by almost 13 points. Even better news is that we know we're better than this, as our scoring average through 14 weeks was 100.32. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
Mean Machine
There's a chance that Mean Machine may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. With just four targets combined in Week 15, their three wide receivers apparently contributed to their respective offenses by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
