Coach Talk

Maharaja Daughters
Nice work, Maharaja Daughters. Bravo on assembling a lineup that won by 17 points in Week 15.
Desert Eagles
All kinds of activity between the 20's: The six starting offensive skill players on Desert Eagles (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to record a healthy 484 total yards. Unfortunately, none of those starters could find his way to the end zone in Week 15.
