Coach Talk

Sayers Monsters
Nice work this past week, Sayers Monsters! We'll give thanks for this bountiful victory, and now focus our attention towards a tough challenge in Prestige Worldwide.
Cracklings
Unless Cracklings wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many chances" won't cut it as an excuse this time around. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 32 targets in Week 11. With just 19 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
