Coach Talk

Stephon's Splendid Team
Nice work deploying a lineup that posted 113.69 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done.
Tech Trainers
Tech Trainers will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 29 targets in Week 16. Chemistry appears to be the primary problem, as that group notched just 17 receptions.
