Coach Talk

The Cardiac Comeback
Nice job, The Cardiac Comeback. Deploying a lineup that won by a whopping 42 points this past week.
SATX Moonmen
Unless SATX Moonmen wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" can't be a reasonable excuse this week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 23 times in Week 15. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group pulled down just 14 catches.
