When your special teams coach has to handle your clock management for you, when you&#8217;re running trick plays over and over inside the 5, when you&#8217;re playing the worst team in the NFL and never cross the goal line in five trips inside the red zone (and come away with only 3 field goals for your trouble), your playcalling is clearly for shit.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOn the bright side, I won both my fantasy league games, largely because I had the fortune to get Drew Brees in one and the brains to draft Ronnie Brown in the other.
