Coach Talk

TOUCHDOWN
You know what, TOUCHDOWN, we do admire the confidence. Deploying not one, not two, but FOUR starters with zero points while still getting the win... that's playing with fire.
Hill Street Blues II
So, Hill Street Blues II, what did your receiving crew do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? With only 16 total targets in Week 9, our four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) obviously got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
