Coach Talk

Jersey Jagz
Listen Jersey Jagz, the good news is that we won this matchup by 2.78 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through 12 weeks was 139.34. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
Shropshire Titans
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 35 times in Week 13. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group managed just 21 receptions.
