Coach Talk

Steam Rollers
You know what, Steam Rollers, we do certainly respect the confidence. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Jack Doyle and Antoine Winfield Jr.), while still getting a win... that's playing with fire! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be toast.
Third and Shlong
With just a couple of catches on five targets this past week, the starting running backs for Third and Shlong should investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
