Coach Talk

EAT EAT 💰 💰
Kudos to you, EAT EAT 💰 💰. Fielding a lineup that won by almost 19 points this past matchup.
Stanley Williams
Unless Stanley Williams wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 16. With just 11 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
