Coach Talk

weakdude28
Deploying a lineup that won by a whopping 30.52 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do.
Joseph Herbert
Welp, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 20 times in Week 16. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group hauled in only 12 receptions.
