Coach Talk

The Professor
Hey, now that's what we're talkin' about! A whopping 26 completions on 32 attempts this past go round for Mr. Efficiency... Uh, sorry, I mean Taylor Heinicke. The Buccaneers defense didn't see it coming! We know the manager of The Professor is thankful for this type of efficiency and attention to detail.
Bizzle's Boys
A lot of cake, no icing: The six offensive skill starters (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) on Bizzle's Boys collectively gained a whopping 477 yards from scrimmage. No one from that group was able to score a touchdown in Week 10.
