Coach Talk

bladen's Unreal Team
Listen, bladen's Unreal Team, we do admire the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Sammy Watkins), while still getting a W. We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Hancocks Beast
Welp, we certainly can't whine about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a healthy 22 targets in Week 13. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they recorded just 12 catches.
