Coach Talk

BALLSWIN
Nice work, BALLSWIN. Bravo on assembling a starting crew that tallied 208.68 points in Week 15.
drizz
drizz may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) combined to get a hearty 41 targets in Week 15. With only 23 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
