Coach Talk

The 79ers
Nice work, The 79ers. Kudos on fielding a lineup that netted 186 points in Week 15.
Young Silence 🤫
Hey, at least there were no celebration penalties: The five offensive skill starters on Young Silence 🤫 (two WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to record a whopping 398 yards from scrimmage. Unfortunately, no one from that group was able to find the end zone in Week 15.
