Coach Talk

halo's Wondrous Team
Listen, halo's Wondrous Team, we certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes a special kind of moxie to field a player with negative points (the Cleveland Browns defense) while still getting the win. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Colleen Centella
Unless Colleen Centella wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many opportunities" is definitely not an excuse this week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 15 times in Week 15. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they pulled down only nine balls.
