Coach Talk

Stewies Pigskinners
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Stewies Pigskinners! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then we have found an area to improve. Our quarterback was thoroughly outplayed by the opposition. Our one signal-callers combined for only 6.5 points in Week 16, and the QBs for CAPT. ED doubled us up with a score of 15.34.
CAPT. ED
Unless CAPT. ED wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough looks" is not a valid excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 20 times in Week 16. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in only 11 balls.
