Coach Talk

Charlie's Angels
Narrow wins like this are paramount for the locker room. Persevering through trials and tribulations, and triumphing in the face of adversity... look for the Charlie's Angels team chemistry to be sky-high heading into Week 15.
big diesel
Here's a list of scenarios where it's somewhat excusable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of Dwight Howard free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Wil Lutz might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after this performance... especially since big diesel needed every point possible in this narrow matchup.
