Coach Talk

Mike Duff's Team
You know what, Mike Duff's Team, we do appreciate the confidence. Starting a player with zero points (Trey Burton), while still earning a W... that's playing with fire! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
The Mouse
"Not seeing many opportunities" is definitely not a viable excuse this week for The Mouse. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 41 times in Week 13. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they reeled in only 25 receptions.
