Coach Talk

Golden Showers
Only one field goal on four attempts? It's quite possible that Adam Vinatieri just kicked himself to the waiver wire after that sort of effort.
BellyButton Bling
Listen, BellyButton Bling, I've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to miraculously appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases (like this week) they don't! Hmmm, alright... asking for an extra 46 points may be a bit on the excessive side.
