Coach Talk

Injury Prone
Well done, Injury Prone. Putting together a lineup that earned 126.46 points in Week 16.
Ridgemont Wolves
Unless Ridgemont Wolves wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. Our three wide receivers were targeted a hearty 13 times in Week 16. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they reeled in just four balls.
