Coach Talk

Gringo's Team
Listen, Gringo's Team, we do admire the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Kenny Golladay), while still earning a win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
No Mercy
"Not getting many opportunities" won't be a valid excuse this week for No Mercy. Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 34 targets in Week 11. With just 20 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
