Coach Talk

Blue Tent
Mission accomplished, Blue Tent. Good job assembling a lineup that posted 131.53 points in Week 16.
Remember the Kickers
Unless Remember the Kickers wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" isn't really an excuse this week. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 26 targets in Week 16. Chemistry appears to be the primary issue, as that group pulled down only 10 balls.
