Coach Talk

GoodGoodFootballBoy
Good work deploying a starting crew that posted more than 95 points this past week. We deem that to be a job done right.
Your Hand Grenade
Welp, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) combined to see a grand total of 14 targets in Week 16. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group hauled in only seven catches.
