Coach Talk

Aged Empire
Deploying a starting crew that won by a whopping 45.5 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done.
Post Master General
"Not seeing enough looks" can't be a valid excuse this week for Post Master General. Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) combined to get a hearty 26 targets in Week 16. With just 15 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
