Coach Talk

Blazin Joints
Hey, we do respect the confidence this past week, Blazin Joints. Playing a starter with zero points (Kenyan Drake), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire.
Massagenistic
Hey, at least there were no celebration penalties: The six starting offensive skill players on Massagenistic (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) combined to record a whopping 422 total yards. Unfortunately, none of those starters could find his way to the end zone in Week 15.
