Coach Talk

867-5309
Nice work assembling a starting crew that won by over 58 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done. Let's take this win in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Mike Dempsey, and continue pushing forward to a fantasy championship.
Mike Dempsey
"Not seeing many opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for Mike Dempsey. As a group, our five pass-catchers (two WR, three TE) were targeted a healthy 27 times in Week 13. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group managed just 15 receptions.
