Coach Talk

Do it for the 'Gram
Deploying a lineup that won by 19.48 points this past week... we deem that to be a job well done.
Run Thru MaxAperture
Unless Run Thru MaxAperture wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough looks" isn't really an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 35 targets in Week 15. With just 19 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
