Coach Talk

Dead Again
Mission accomplished, Dead Again. Fielding a lineup that won by a whopping 57.5 points this past matchup.
DARC NARC
Unless DARC NARC wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" is definitely not an excuse this time around. Our six pass-catchers (five WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 44 times in Week 14. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they pulled down just 22 receptions.
