Coach Talk

Road Warriors Domina
You know what, Road Warriors Domina, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Gerald Everett), while still getting the win.
Stone Cold Steve Austin
Hey, Stone Cold Steve Austin, what'd your pass-catchers do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? With just 14 total targets this past week, our starting receiver crew (three WR, one TE) clearly got on their respective QBs' bad sides.
