Coach Talk

Kyler the Creator
Nice job, Kyler the Creator. Putting together a team that earned 92.48 points in Week 12. Let's keep this momentum rolling as we move on to our next challenge in Week 13.
YAC Boyz
YAC Boyz will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our one wide receiver combined to get a whopping 10 targets in Week 12. With just six total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
