Coach Talk

BelgradePatriots
Kudos on deploying a starting crew that netted 72 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done.
Iz Čikaga moji...
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 13 times in Week 15. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they hauled in only six balls.
