Coach Talk

Mr big puff
You know what, Mr big puff, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes moxie to start, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Marquez Valdes-Scantling and T.Y. Hilton), while still earning the W! We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be finished.
Danny's Dandy Team
Well, we certainly can't whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 28 times in Week 14. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group managed only 16 receptions.
