Coach Talk

Community Champs
Nice work assembling a lineup that produced 108.6 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right.
Sports Entertainment is Rigged
Unless Sports Entertainment is Rigged wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many chances" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (one WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 11 targets in Week 16. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they recorded only seven catches.
