Coach Talk

CF's Impressive Team
We're curious if the GM of CF's Impressive Team was feeling a bit squeamish this one? In a matchup that was ultimately decided by only 1.9 points, Evan McPherson (3-of-4 on the day) decided that going 4-for-4 on field goals just wouldn't have been exciting enough. Remember kids, every point matters!
andrew's Unreal Team
andrew's Unreal Team will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 38 targets in Week 14. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group pulled down only 22 catches.
