Coach Talk

Blazin Blitzers
Good work, Blazin Blitzers. Props on deploying a starting crew that recorded 138 points in Week 12. We should keep this momentum going as we head into a tricky matchup in Week 13.
deepball
deepball may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) collectively got a healthy 29 targets in Week 12. With only 16 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
