Coach Talk

Los Fearless
Hey, we admire the confidence, Los Fearless. It's a bold move to deploy a player with zero points (Josh Jacobs), while still getting the win! We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we're finished.
MoFoS
Well, we can't really whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 38 times in Week 14. Chemistry could be the primary problem, as that group notched just 22 receptions.
