Coach Talk

K Bizzle's Team
Close victories like this can be incredibly important for team chemistry. Persevering in the face of adversity and triumphing as a tight-knit unit... we expect the K Bizzle's Team locker room to really gel heading into Week 15.
Fania's Team
With just three receptions on five targets this past week, the starting running backs for Fania's Team should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
