Coach Talk

Mr big puff
You know what, Mr big puff, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Kadarius Toney and T.J. Hockenson), while still earning the W. 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 finished.
Bad News Bears
Wow, talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting RBs for Bad News Bears collectively recorded only zero catches on three measly targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to draw up a couple of screen plays in Week 15!
