Coach Talk

Homer's Team
All kinds of activity between the 20's: The six offensive skill starters on Homer's Team (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) combined to register a healthy 524 total yards. No one from that group could find his way to paydirt in Week 12.
Ptičice
Talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting backfield for Ptičice collectively recorded just four targets this past week. Tell those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 13!
