Coach Talk

sgiugi's Team
Heckuva job overcoming that three-game losing skid, sgiugi's Team! Every fantasy team is presented with adversity somewhere along the way... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
TonyRomo
Unless TonyRomo wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many chances" isn't really a reasonable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 31 targets in Week 13. Those players should spend extra practice time working with their QBs, considering they hauled in only 19 receptions.
