Coach Talk

MGKVSBRD
Bravo, MGKVSBRD. Good work assembling a starting crew that won by more than 16 points in Week 14. We should take this victory in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Comeback Kid, and continue the march towards the Hiawatha League of Champions title.
Comeback Kid
"Not seeing enough opportunities" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Comeback Kid. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 21 times in Week 14. With only 13 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
