Coach Talk

The Buzz Saw
Listen, The Buzz Saw, we do admire the confidence. Starting a player with zero points (Robert Tonyan), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Do it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Bald Eagle
Bald Eagle may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, two TE) combined to get a grand total of 24 targets in Week 1. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group recorded just 14 catches.
