Coach Talk

Landon's Legit Team
Kudos on assembling a lineup that produced more than 125 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done.
shilak's Dandy Team
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 14 times in Week 15. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group hauled in only eight catches.
