Coach Talk

Brooklyn Bandits
Listen, Brooklyn Bandits, we do appreciate the confidence. It takes real moxie to start a player with zero points (Tim Patrick), while still earning the win.
Top shotta
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 18 times in Week 15. With just 10 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
