Coach Talk

BRADY TO GRONK
Listen, BRADY TO GRONK, we do certainly admire the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (O.J. Howard), while still earning the win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we're toast.
hawaii's Okay Team
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's borderline acceptable to go 0-for-2: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the Finals. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Chris Boswell may have just kicked himself to the waiver wire after that sort of effort.
