Coach Talk

Hurts So Good
Deploying a lineup that produced nearly 106 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right.
Threeballzreign
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) combined to receive a hearty 21 targets in Week 16. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group tallied only 10 receptions.
