Coach Talk

Douche Bags
You know what, Douche Bags, we do certainly admire the confidence. Deploying not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Nelson Agholor and Quinnen Williams), while still getting the W... talk about arrogant. We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we're finished.
Slackers
Just one make on three field goal attempts? Seems like Matt Prater may have just toe-bashed himself back into the free agent pool after that sort of effort.
