Coach Talk

Superhiks
Bravo, Superhiks. Putting together a lineup that tallied 86 points in Week 16.
UE Broncos
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 28 targets in Week 16. With only 15 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
