Coach Talk

Flyhawks
Listen, Flyhawks, we do appreciate the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Minkah Fitzpatrick), while still earning the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists.
Warriors
Three wide receivers, one running back, zero tight end, zero touchdowns: The four starting offensive skill players on Warriors combined to register a whopping 277 total yards. No one from that group could get into the end zone in Week 15.
