Coach Talk

Out for Blood
Whoa, Out for Blood, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this performance. Not only did you win by more than 18 points, you also jumped up from 10th place to eighth in the league standings. Nice job!
Lords of Burttown
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 19 times in Week 13. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group reeled in only 10 catches.
