Coach Talk

PPE 2018
Listen PPE 2018, the good news is that we won this matchup by a impressive 32.7 points. Even better news is that we know we're better than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through 14 weeks was 117.32. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Turn ur Head n Goff
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 29 times in Week 15. With only 14 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
