Coach Talk

Skyy's the Limit
Listen Skyy's the Limit, we're glass-half-full kind of coaches. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped recently, we'll choose to take the high road. Averaging 100.81 points through Week 12, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outperforming the 95.26 we needed to win this past week!
SouthPaw Shark
SouthPaw Shark will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 13. With only 11 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
