Coach Talk

tommy's Legit Team
Props to you, tommy's Legit Team. Nice job assembling a starting crew that blew the opponent out by more than 28 points in Week 16.
Steel City 4Life
Steel City 4Life may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 21 times in Week 16. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in just 11 balls.
