Coach Talk

Gary Busey
Whoa now Gary Busey, that's what rigorous preparation and executing the game plan can do for ya! A completion percentage of 97 percent this past go round for Mr. Precision... Uh, sorry, I mean Drew Brees. That Colts secondary didn't know what hit 'em! We know the GM of Gary Busey has got to be thankful for this type of precision and attention to detail.
Saved by L. Bell
"Not getting enough opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week for Saved by L. Bell. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to see a respectable 29 targets in Week 15. With just 13 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
