Coach Talk

THOMAS's Terrific Team
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's not really any other way for us to spin this, THOMAS's Terrific Team. Our quarterback was severely outmatched this past week. Our one signal-callers combined for only 17.38 points in Week 17, and the QBs for Mighty Mike's Team #5 doubled us up with a score of 34.84.
Mighty Mike's Team #5
Unless Mighty Mike's Team #5 wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" is definitely not a valid excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (two WR and two TE) combined to receive a whopping 20 targets in Week 17. With just 12 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
