Coach Talk

Tom's Deflated Balls
Nice job assembling a lineup that produced more than 141 points this past week. We deem that to be a job well done.
jose's Swag Team
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a respectable 35 targets in Week 16. With only 20 total catches, this group may have some chemistry issues.
