Coach Talk

KING BEAST
Props to you, KING BEAST. Deploying a lineup that registered 284.57 points this past week.
Efrain's Team
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 42 times in Week 16. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group reeled in only 25 catches.
