Coach Talk

thelochieash's Team
You know what, thelochieash's Team, we do certainly respect the confidence. Deploying not one, not two, but THREE starters with zero points (Jamison Crowder, Delanie Walker, and the Denver Broncos defense), while still getting the W... that's playing with fire! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we're toast.
Kevins Micro Dongs
Hey, Kevins Micro Dongs, did your receiving crew talk bad about their quarterbacks or something? With only five targets combined this past week, our three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) obviously need to get in their respective QBs' ears this week in practice.
