Coach Talk

Jesse & The Rippers
You know Jesse & The Rippers, we're "glass half full" kind of coaches. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's declined a bit recently, we'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 123.45 points through Week 12, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outperforming the 95.4 we needed for this past week's win!
Turn Your Head and Goff
Unless Turn Your Head and Goff wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough chances" isn't really an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a whopping 19 targets in Week 13. With only 10 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
