Coach Talk

Randy's Dandies
Well, we do applaud the confidence this past week, Randy's Dandies. It takes true moxie to roll out a player with negative points (the Pittsburgh Steelers defense) while still getting the W. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
