Coach Talk

Mack North
Hey, it's good to be confident, Mack North. Deploying a player with zero points (Sammy Watkins), while still earning the win... that's borderline cocky! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we're finished.
Apollo
Apollo may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) combined to see a grand total of 32 targets in Week 13. Those players should spend extra practice time working with their QBs, considering they tallied just 18 catches.
