Coach Talk

Gwoutrider's Groovy Team
Infinite hours in the film room and in practice. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Every single route, every single pass, drawn up meticulously and executed deliberately. And the final result? A spectacular 36 connections on 41 attempts... good enough for an 88% completion percentage for Patrick Mahomes this past week. The Texans secondary didn't see it coming!.
Johnny's Incredible Team
Unless Johnny's Incredible Team wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 31 times in Week 15. Chemistry seems to be a problem, as that group reeled in just 13 receptions.
