Coach Talk

David's Definitive Team
Props to you, David's Definitive Team. Nice work assembling a lineup that netted more than 147 points in Week 16.
One Eyed Snakes
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 16 times in Week 16. Chemistry seems to be the primary issue, as that group pulled down just six balls.
