Coach Talk

Cool Brees
Football is all about creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying kennedy's Team at the wide receiver position (35.2 points to 13.5).
kennedy's Team
Hey, kennedy's Team, what'd your wideouts do to tick off their quarterbacks this week? With only 10 targets as a group in Week 15, our three wide receivers obviously got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
