Coach Talk

Demons
Assembling a starting crew that produced more than 105 points this past week... we deem that to be a job well done.
Over
Over will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 19 times in Week 16. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they pulled down just 10 balls.
