Coach Talk

Big Blue
Nice job assembling a lineup that earned 209.77 points this past week. We deem that to be a job done right. Let's keep this momentum going as we head into our Week 15 matchup.
PwnStars
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's borderline excusable to go 0-for-2: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the Finals. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Wil Lutz might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after that sort of performance.
