Coach Talk

New England Patriots
Hey, we admire the confidence, New England Patriots. It takes moxie to deploy, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Robby Anderson and Ryan Izzo), while still earning the W! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we'll be done.
Seattle Seahawks
Unless Seattle Seahawks wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (two WR, two TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 10. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group reeled in just nine receptions.
