Coach Talk

Dak 🤚 to the Future
Putting together a starting crew that earned nearly 211 points this past week... we took care of business and did what had to be done.
CAPTAIN INSANO
Unless CAPTAIN INSANO wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this time around. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 30 targets in Week 16. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group managed just 18 catches.
