Coach Talk

Destroyers
Nice work, Destroyers. Kudos on fielding a lineup that tallied 469.5 points this past matchup.
future flash
future flash will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 41 times in Week 15. With just 24 total receptions, this group may have some chemistry issues.
