Coach Talk

Alfred Bacon's Team
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, Alfred Bacon's Team. Deploying a starter with zero points (Jeff Wilson Jr.), while still getting the win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be finished.
OUTLAWS
"Not seeing enough looks" really isn't an excuse this week for OUTLAWS. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 17. With only nine total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
