Coach Talk

DETROIT DEMONZ
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no other way to put it, DETROIT DEMONZ. Our QB was severely outclassed this past week. Josh Allen went 30-of-47 for 314 yards and three touchdowns for Inner City Limits, and all Matt Ryan could produce was an 18-for-24 day, with 215 yards and one passing TD.
Inner City Limits
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) collectively received a hearty 15 targets in Week 16. With only eight total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
