Coach Talk

Illumi-Nagee
Nice job, Illumi-Nagee. Bravo on deploying a starting crew that registered more than 144 points in Week 15.
Stark Naked
Hey, Stark Naked, did your wideouts talk bad about their offensive coordinators or something? Accumulating only 12 targets combined this past week, our three wide receivers clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
