Coach Talk

Peyton Manning
Good job deploying a starting crew that registered 129.54 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. Let's keep this momentum going as we move on to what will surely be a tricky Week 14 matchup.
michael's Great Team
"Not getting enough opportunities" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for michael's Great Team. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 31 times in Week 13. With only 16 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
