Coach Talk

Rico's Boss Team
Listen, Rico's Boss Team, we do certainly respect the confidence. It takes gumption to play a player with zero points (Dalvin Cook), while still getting the W! We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be finished.
Toronto Packers
Welp, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 16. Chemistry appears to be the primary issue, as that group reeled in only 16 balls.
