Coach Talk

Luigi's Team
Here's a list of scenarios where it's excusable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A hitter's line in baseball, the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the NBA Finals, and a double-fault in tennis. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Wil Lutz might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after that sort of effort.
kevin's Cool Team
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 14. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group hauled in only nine balls.
