Coach Talk

NUMBER TWO
Kudos to you, NUMBER TWO. Good job deploying a lineup that blew the opposition out by nearly 30 points this past week.
Pork Chop Express
Hey, at least there were no celebration penalties: The four starting offensive skill players (two RBs, one WR, one TE) on Pork Chop Express collectively gained a whopping 313 yards from scrimmage. Unfortunately, not one of those players was able to score a touchdown in Week 16.
