Coach Talk

Gee's Baby Mama
Getting the win is most important, Gee's Baby Mama, but we do know of one spot where we can improve as a team; our starting QB was utterly outplayed this past week. Our one signal-callers combined for just 6.5 points in Week 16, and the QBs for Damn Rights showed us up by recording a score of 16.32.
Damn Rights
It's entirely possible that Damn Rights would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only 11 targets combined this past week, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
