Coach Talk

Turkey Jones
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's borderline excusable to go 0-for-2: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of Dwight Howard free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? It's quite possible that Tyler Bass just kicked himself to the waiver wire after this effort.
Butt Ruckers
It's entirely possible that Butt Ruckers could be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just zero targets as a group in Week 11, their three wide receivers apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
