Coach Talk

Black Hyenas
Mission accomplished, Black Hyenas. Nice job deploying a team that netted 214 points this past week.
Dawgman
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 16 times in Week 14. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they recorded just eight receptions.
