Coach Talk

william l's Team
Well, we do applaud the confidence this past week, william l's Team. Starting a player with negative points (the Cleveland Browns defense) while still earning the win... talk about arrogance. All we ask is to please keep those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Mushroom Capital
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our five pass-catchers (three WR, two TE) were targeted a grand total of 34 times in Week 15. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group pulled down only 19 receptions.
