Coach Talk

ricky's Awesome Team
Listen, ricky's Awesome Team, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes a special sort of guts to deploy a player with zero points (Zeke Turner), while still getting the W! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be finished.
SKINS #2
Three WRs, three RBs, one TE, zero TDs: The seven starting offensive position players on SKINS #2 combined to record a whopping 420 yards from scrimmage. No one from that group could get into the end zone in Week 2.
