Coach Talk

X-men
Earning the win is most important, X-men, but we've also identified one spot where we should get better as a team. Our running backs were significantly outmatched this past week. Our backfield produced only 12.2 points in Week 15, while the starting backfield for Johnny's Team doubled us up with a score of 29.2.
Johnny's Team
With just four receptions this past week, the starting RBs for Johnny's Team should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
