Coach Talk

3 KiDs
Only one make on three field goal attempts? Sounds like Adam Vinatieri might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
Top Gun
With only four receptions this past week, the starting running backs for Top Gun clearly should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to start checking down more frequently.
