Coach Talk

Panzer division
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Panzer division. Starting not one, but TWO players with zero points (Vance McDonald and DJ Chark Jr.), while still earning the W... talk about arrogant.
MNG Orlovi
Three WRs, two RBs, one TE, zero TDs: The six starting offensive position players on MNG Orlovi collectively gained a whopping 542 yards from scrimmage. Not one of those players could get into the end zone in Week 15.
