Coach Talk

TD Murray
Whoa now TD Murray, that's what rigorous preparation and executing the game plan will do for ya! A completion percentage of 88% this past week for Mr. Efficient... Uh, sorry, I mean Drew Brees. That Bengals defense didn't stand a chance! We know the manager of TD Murray has got to be grateful for the efficiency and attention to detail.
yaoge221
All of the cake, none of the icing: The six starting offensive position players (four WRs, one RB, one TE) on yaoge221 combined to register a healthy 360 yards from scrimmage. No one from that group could find his way to the end zone in Week 10.
