Coach Talk

2 Gurleys 1 Cup
Assembling a lineup that produced nearly 158 points this past week... we deem that to be a job well done.
Vardy
Well, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 43 targets in Week 14. With only 26 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
