Coach Talk

Can I Haz Touchdown?
Hey, we do admire the confidence this past week, Can I Haz Touchdown?. It takes gumption to deploy a starter with zero points (Jeffery Simmons), while still getting the W! All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be finished.
Spoon
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our two wide receivers collectively got a whopping 22 targets in Week 13. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they recorded only 12 catches.
