Coach Talk

unstAPPAble
Good job assembling a starting crew that produced 256.62 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done.
Flight Crew
Unless Flight Crew wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" cannot be a reasonable excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, two TE) collectively received a grand total of 23 targets in Week 16. Chemistry could be a problem, as that group pulled down only 11 receptions.
