Coach Talk

The Thurmanator
Wow, the Dolphins defense didn't know what hit 'em! 30 connections on 37 attempts: good enough for a 81 percent completion percentage for Andrew Luck. We know the GM of The Thurmanator has to be appreciative of the attention to detail.
Dan Marino
Wow, talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for Dan Marino collectively logged two catches on just three targets this past week. Instruct those quarterbacks to check down a little more often in Week 13!
