Coach Talk

Butler Jets
Well Butler Jets, the good news is that we won this matchup by a whopping 27 points. Even better news is that we've proven we're better than this, as our scoring average through 12 weeks was 100.67. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Springfield Atoms
"Not seeing enough opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week for Springfield Atoms. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 31 times in Week 13. With just 15 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
