Coach Talk

Voodoo Chiles
Good work, Voodoo Chiles. Deploying a starting crew that netted nearly 195 points this past matchup.
Treasure Hunters
Treasure Hunters may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 13 targets in Week 15. Those players should spend extra practice time working with their QBs, considering they reeled in only five receptions.
