Coach Talk

thank me later
Kudos on assembling a lineup that produced over 65 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right.
Maine Up!
Unless Maine Up! wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough chances" cannot be a reasonable excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 18 times in Week 15. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they reeled in just nine receptions.
