Coach Talk

Slye The Tua
Bravo, Slye The Tua. Good work assembling a starting crew that posted more than 256 points this past week. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Dub Nation, take this W in stride, and continue marching forward to a fantasy championship.
Dub Nation
Unless Dub Nation wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 36 times in Week 13. With only 21 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
