Coach Talk

Saquon Deez Nuts
Bravo on assembling a lineup that produced almost 124 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. Let's keep this momentum going as we roll into our Week 13 matchup.
Faster Cleaner Better
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 14 times in Week 12. With just eight total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
