Coach Talk

Steel City Divas
Deploying a lineup that recorded over 138 points this past week... we did what we needed to do and took care of business.
MudDogs
MudDogs may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 17. Chemistry seems to be the primary issue, as that group managed only 16 receptions.
