Coach Talk

Quon Solo
Props to you, Quon Solo. Good work deploying a lineup that blew the competition out by over 28 points this past week.
Sam's Splendid Team
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (four WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 39 times in Week 16. With only 22 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
