Coach Talk

Bradshaws Bombers
Kudos to you, Bradshaws Bombers. Fielding a team that won by a whopping 21.56 points this past matchup.
LT's Giants
Unless LT's Giants wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough opportunities" can't be an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and two TE) were targeted a respectable 33 times in Week 16. Chemistry could be the primary issue, as that group notched just 20 catches.
