Coach Talk

Demolition men
Wow, Demolition men, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this performance. Not only did you win by nearly 17 points, you also jumped up from seventh place to fifth in the league standings... directly into the thick of postseason contention
What's this for?
"Not getting enough chances" won't cut it as an excuse this week for What's this for?. Our pass-catching corps (four WR and one TE) collectively received a whopping 24 targets in Week 13. With only 14 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
