Coach Talk

RT17
Putting together a lineup that won by 43.72 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right.
Goldfinger Slingers
Well, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively received a hearty 22 targets in Week 15. Chemistry could be a problem, as that group managed just 11 receptions.
