Coach Talk

Nick's Chubb
Deploying a lineup that produced nearly 107 points this past week... we did what was needed and took care of business.
Lucas's Team
All of the cake, none of the icing: The six offensive skill starters on Lucas's Team (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to register a healthy 407 total yards. None of those starters was able to score a touchdown in Week 15.
