Coach Talk

Hogie's Hero's
Props on deploying a starting crew that earned more than 696 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right.
Pogues Mahone
"Not seeing many opportunities" can't be an excuse this week for Pogues Mahone. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) combined to receive a respectable 21 targets in Week 15. Chemistry could be the primary problem, as that group managed only 13 receptions.
