Coach Talk

Battleship
All of the cake, none of the icing: The six starting offensive skill players on Battleship (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to register a whopping 516 yards from scrimmage. No one from that group managed to find the end zone in Week 16.
Donnie's Dazzling Team
Unless Donnie's Dazzling Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) collectively got a respectable 22 targets in Week 16. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group notched only 11 catches.
