Coach Talk

Ligers
You know Ligers, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has decreased a bit recently, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 117.66 points through Week 13, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outproducing the 110.93 we needed for this past week's win!
stillmatic
"Not getting enough looks" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for stillmatic. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, two TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 14. With only 15 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
