Coach Talk

Muddawgs
Deploying a lineup that won by over 15 points this past week... we did what we had to do and took care of business.
The Silver Bullets
"Not getting many opportunities" won't fly as an excuse this week for The Silver Bullets. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to see a whopping 31 targets in Week 14. With only 19 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
