Coach Talk

Pop's
Bravo on assembling a lineup that won by a staggering 57 points this past week. We did what we needed to do and took care of business.
Mushroom Capital
Well, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 26 targets in Week 15. With just 16 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
