Coach Talk

Average Joe's
Deploying a starting crew that posted 154.47 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do. We should take this victory in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Brady Bunch, and continue the march towards a fantasy title.
Brady Bunch
Brady Bunch may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 34 times in Week 13. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group notched only 20 catches.
