Coach Talk

The Dragons
Nice job assembling a starting crew that tallied 114 points this past week. We took care of business and did what we needed to do.
ghost to the post
ghost to the post may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively received a grand total of 33 targets in Week 16. With just 20 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
