Coach Talk

douglas's Grand Team
Hey, we admire the confidence, douglas's Grand Team. It takes guts to deploy a player with zero points (Gerald Everett), while still getting the win.
Dawgpound Xpress
Unless Dawgpound Xpress wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many looks" is definitely not a viable excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 40 targets in Week 16. With only 21 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
