Coach Talk

Big Mac
Yo, Big Mac, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this dominant effort. Not only did you win by 43+ points, you also climbed a ridiculous three spots in the league standings... directly into the thick of playoff contention
Wardawgs
"Not seeing many chances" won't fly as an excuse this week for Wardawgs. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 33 times in Week 11. With only 18 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
