Coach Talk

eric's Team
Well eric's Team, the good news is that we won this matchup by over 17 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this, as our scoring average through Week 13 stood at 96.14. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Premier League ain't so bad
"Not seeing enough opportunities" can't be a reasonable excuse this week for Premier League ain't so bad. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 27 times in Week 14. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group hauled in only 14 balls.
