Coach Talk

Frank Da Tank
Countless hours in the film room and in practice. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Every single route, every single throw, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. And the outcome? A spectacular 29 completions on 30 attempts... good enough for a 97% completion percentage for Drew Brees this past week. The Colts secondary didn't stand a chance!.
Marcus's Swag Team
Logging only one catch on three targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for Marcus's Swag Team should work to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more often.
