Coach Talk

Hogie's Hero's
Assembling a lineup that produced 850.6 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we needed to do.
Sanchez Rules
Well, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (four WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 39 times in Week 14. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group notched just 21 receptions.
