Coach Talk

The Minor Prophets
Props on assembling a lineup that won by more than 24 points this past week. We deem that to be a job done right.
Stars and Scrubs
"Not getting enough chances" is definitely not an excuse this week for Stars and Scrubs. Our two wide receivers were targeted a respectable 11 times in Week 15. With only five total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
