Coach Talk

Michael Scott
You know what, Michael Scott, we do appreciate the confidence. It takes moxie to start, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Zane Gonzalez and Michael Thomas), while still earning a win.
Quarter Chubb
All of the cake, none of the icing: The four starting offensive skill players on Quarter Chubb (three WRs, zero RB, one TE) combined to record a whopping 277 yards from scrimmage. None of those starters could find his way to the end zone in Week 15.
