Coach Talk

JOMO eat your Babies
Nice work assembling a lineup that produced 136.51 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done.
Yo Nice!
Yo Nice! may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) collectively received a hearty 19 targets in Week 16. Chemistry seems to be the primary issue, as that group reeled in only 11 catches.
