Coach Talk

Roostrs
Props to you, Roostrs. Nice work assembling a lineup that blew the competition out by a whopping 25.6 points this past week.
Huss Monkeys
"Not seeing many opportunities" won't be a valid excuse this week for Huss Monkeys. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 16. Chemistry seems to be a problem, as that group hauled in just 14 catches.
