Coach Talk

Joe's Team
You know Joe's Team, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than 67 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this, as our scoring average through 12 weeks was 337.76. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Philly special
Tons of action between the 20's: The seven offensive skill starters on Philly special (three WRs, three RBs, one TE) combined to register a whopping 424 yards from scrimmage. Unfortunately, no one from that group could find his way to the end zone in Week 13.
