Coach Talk

John Matrix Commando
Way to shrug off that two-game losing skid, John Matrix Commando! Every fantasy team will surely be met with adversity at some point or another... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Hasta La Vista Brady
Unless Hasta La Vista Brady wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 18 targets in Week 13. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group pulled down just 10 catches.
