Henrything Is Possible

Win or die trying
Unless Win or die trying wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many chances" isn't really an excuse this time around. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 28 targets in Week 18. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they pulled down only 17 receptions.
