Coach Talk

#23TacklingMachine
Well done, #23TacklingMachine. Putting together a starting crew that tallied more than 150 points this past week. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Spaulding's Team, take this victory in stride, and continue on our way towards a fantasy championship.
Spaulding's Team
Unless Spaulding's Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" isn't really an excuse this time around. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) combined to see a grand total of 23 targets in Week 13. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they hauled in just 13 catches.
