Coach Talk

C- Draft
Whoa, C- Draft, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this performance. Along with a nearly 20-point victory, you also climbed from ninth place to seventh in the league standings... directly into the thick of playoff contention
Noe's Nifty Team
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 33 times in Week 12. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group recorded just 20 receptions.
