Coach Talk

EW Fleet of Feet 3
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's borderline acceptable to go 0-for-2: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of Shaquille O'Neal free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Evan McPherson might have just kicked himself back into the free agent pool after this performance.
PATRIOTS RULE
Recording just a couple of targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for PATRIOTS RULE should work to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to start checking down more often.
