Coach Talk

The White Knucklers
Hey, it's good to be confident, The White Knucklers. Deploying not one, but TWO starters with zero points (A.J. Green and Matt Breida), while still earning the win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Mr big puff
Unless Mr big puff wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 23 targets in Week 14. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group notched just 11 catches.
