Coach Talk

Mcdulldfx
Only one make on five field goal tries? Sounds like Mason Crosby might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
buttfumble's Team
With only a pair of receptions on four measly targets this past week, the starting running backs for buttfumble's Team clearly should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
