Coach Talk

Night Hawk
Here's a list of scenarios where it's (borderline) excusable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and a pair of Dwight Howard free throws. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? It's quite possible that Wil Lutz just kicked himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
The Overkiller's
You can rest easy knowing that your generosity didn't go unnoticed, The Overkiller's. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Night Hawk succeed this week. Who knows, maybe they'll return the favor by choosing a couple of kickers early in next year's draft... something along those lines!
