Coach Talk

Truther Bust
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, Truther Bust. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Vance McDonald and Derrius Guice), while still earning the win... talk about arrogant.
Shitty Toe Drop
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (five WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 31 times in Week 15. With just 15 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
