Coach Talk

Burt Bombers
Well done, Burt Bombers. Fielding a lineup that earned 89 points this past matchup.
JonnyFab
JonnyFab will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) collectively got a respectable 20 targets in Week 16. With just 10 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
