Coach Talk

Team Goode
Nice job, Team Goode. Deploying a starting crew that earned 86.74 points this past week.
How I Met life your mother
Unless How I Met life your mother wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (two WR and two TE) collectively got a healthy 28 targets in Week 15. With just 12 total catches, this group may have some chemistry issues.
