Coach Talk

Philadelphia Eagles
Props to you, Philadelphia Eagles. Nice job deploying a lineup that nearly recorded 333 points this past matchup. We should tip our cap to the GM of Indianapolis Colts, take this win in stride, and continue the march towards the NFL Franchise Dynasty 18 league title.
Indianapolis Colts
Well, we certainly can't whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (five WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 38 times in Week 13. Chemistry could be the primary problem, as that group pulled down just 22 receptions.
