Coach Talk

Monster Lineman
Whoa, that Colts defense didn't know what hit 'em! 29 connections on 30 attempts: good enough for a 97 percent completion percentage for Drew Brees. We know the GM of Monster Lineman is grateful for that attention to detail.
liam's Team
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to see a grand total of 42 targets in Week 15. With just 24 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
