Coach Talk

Faces of Death
Listen Faces of Death, we're "glass half full" kind of coaches. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped recently, we'll choose to take the high road. Averaging 107.42 points through Week 14, our crew has obviously proven that it's even better than the 80.82 we needed for this past week's win!
Titanium's Craniums
Yo, Titanium's Craniums, what'd your receiving crew do to irk their quarterbacks this week? Seeing just 10 targets combined in Week 15, our three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) obviously need to get in their respective QBs' ears this week in practice.
