Coach Talk

Wrecking Crew
All kinds of action between the 20's: The six offensive position starters (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) on Wrecking Crew combined to record a healthy 435 yards from scrimmage. Not one of those players could find his way to paydirt in Week 8.
0o
With not a single target thrown in their direction this past week the starting RBs for 0o should remind their quarterbacks to start checking down more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
