Coach Talk

Rebel Alliance
Putting together a starting crew that won by a whopping 44.5 points this past week... we deem that to be a job well done. Let's maintain this momentum as we head into our Week 13 matchup.
Mutinous Apes
Well, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, two TE) combined to see a healthy 28 targets in Week 12. With only 17 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
