Coach Talk

L-Diggity
Nice job assembling a lineup that won by a whopping 64.6 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done.
Roostrs
Well, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 33 times in Week 16. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they pulled down only 19 balls.
