Coach Talk

bubbasboyz
Nice job, bubbasboyz. Props on deploying a lineup that earned over 203 points in Week 15.
Jeppers Creepers
Unless Jeppers Creepers wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough chances" can't be a reasonable excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 18 targets in Week 15. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in only 11 balls.
