Coach Talk

Latarrance's Team
Hey, it's good to be confident, Latarrance's Team. Deploying a starter with zero points (Eric Ebron), while still earning a win... talk about arrogant.
Nate's Nice Team
Well, we certainly can't whine about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 19 targets in Week 15. With only 11 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
