Coach Talk

One--Eyed--Willie
You know what, One--Eyed--Willie, we do appreciate the confidence. It takes a certain kind of moxie to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Aldrick Rosas and Erik Swoope), while still earning the W. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week and see what happens!
Dogs
Hey, our crew was just resting up for Week 16, right? The seven offensive skill starters on Dogs (four WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to record 305 yards and no touchdowns this past week. The skill players on One--Eyed--Willie definitely outperformed us by logging 588 yards and three scores.
