Coach Talk

Blue Skywalker
You know what, Blue Skywalker, we do certainly respect the confidence. It takes a special kind of gumption to roll out a player with zero points (DeSean Jackson), while still earning the win. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Kalen me Sauls
A ton of action between the 20's: The six starting offensive skill players (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) on Kalen me Sauls collectively gained a healthy 403 total yards. Unfortunately, no one from that group could find his way to the end zone in Week 2.
