Coach Talk

Mario's Mind-Blowing Team
Hey, we admire the confidence, Mario's Mind-Blowing Team. Deploying a player with zero points (Christian McCaffrey), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire.
Yogurt
"Not seeing enough opportunities" won't be a viable excuse this week for Yogurt. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively received a healthy 27 targets in Week 15. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they reeled in only 13 catches.
