LaFleur: Yeah, he just came in with some back spasms, but he's going to try to get out there today.
LaFleur: Yeah, we've got to move the football. We've got to keep the defense off the field as much as we possibly can. I mean, it's a really good offense, and they've done a really good job of controlling the football games.
