Coach Talk

headhunters
Nice work deploying a lineup that won by an impressive 34 points this past week. We did what was needed and took care of business.
OLR
Welp, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 37 times in Week 14. With just 21 total receptions, this group may have some chemistry issues.
