Coach Talk

jerzyGOhard
Sheesh, at least no one got flagged for excessive end zone celebration: The five starting offensive skill players (two WRs, two RBs, one TE) on jerzyGOhard combined to record a whopping 532 yards from scrimmage. Not one of those players was able to score a touchdown in Week 15.
Hold my beer
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) collectively saw a whopping 24 targets in Week 15. With just 12 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
