Coach Talk

Fruitport Rush
Whoa, the Chiefs secondary didn't see it coming! 25 completions on 31 attempts... good enough for an 81 percent completion percentage for Joe Burrow. We know the GM of Fruitport Rush has to be grateful for this type of attention to detail.
Gridiron Legends
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 13. With only nine total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
