Coach Talk

Rubber Ducks
Bravo, Rubber Ducks. Nice job deploying a lineup that won by 16.56 points in Week 16.
Tequila United
Unless Tequila United wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" can't be an excuse this time around. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 26 times in Week 16. With only 15 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
