Coach Talk

Kibbles N Fitz
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Kibbles N Fitz! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then we have found an area to improve; our wide receivers were significantly outplayed this past week. Held back by Randall Cobb (-3 total yards, no TDs) and Dede Westbrook (14 yards, no TDs), our four WRs combined for just 23 points in Week 15. The starting wideouts for Buddy s Bitches doubled us up with a score of 46.
Buddy s Bitches
It's entirely possible that Buddy s Bitches may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. With only 15 targets combined this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
