Coach Talk

Potsy's Posse
Well, we do admire the confidence this past week, Potsy's Posse. It takes real moxie to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (David Johnson and Jack Doyle), while still getting the W. All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're finished.
Hogie's Hero's
Hogie's Hero's may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and two TE) were targeted a hearty 25 times in Week 11. Chemistry appears to be the primary issue, as that group reeled in just 14 catches.
