Coach Talk

Heavy Pettine
Good work deploying a lineup that tallied 205.75 points this past week. We did what we had to do and took care of business. We should keep this momentum rolling as we move on to a tricky matchup in Week 14.
Ditka Naybox
Just one make on four field goal tries? Seems like Adam Vinatieri might be kicking himself back into the free agent pool following that sort of performance.
