Coach Talk

Redlegs
Listen, Redlegs, we applaud you on the confidence. It takes guts to roll out a player with negative points (Nick Foles) while still earning the win. All we ask is to please limit those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Rebel Alliance
A ton of action between the 20's: The eight starting offensive skill players (five WRs, two RBs, one TE) on Rebel Alliance combined to record a whopping 597 total yards. No one from that group, unfortunately, was able to find the end zone in Week 13.
