Coach Talk

KO KID's Swell Team
Well done, KO KID's Swell Team. Nice work deploying a starting crew that tallied more than 201 points in Week 16.
Titan Up
Titan Up may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 24 times in Week 16. With just 13 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
