Coach Talk

EATMECOMPLETELY
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, EATMECOMPLETELY. It takes moxie to start a player with zero points (T.Y. Hilton), while still getting a win.
Joey’s Team
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 22 targets in Week 14. With only 12 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
