Coach Talk

THE BIG DOGS
Way to shrug off that two-game losing skid, THE BIG DOGS! Every fantasy team is faced with adversity somewhere along the way... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Charlie's Tunas
Well, we can't really whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 23 times in Week 14. With just 13 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
