Coach Talk

Funk E Zekiel
Mission accomplished, Funk E Zekiel. Nice work assembling a lineup that tallied 124.56 points in Week 14.
Rook Squad
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 31 times in Week 14. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they hauled in just 19 catches.
