TAMPA, Fla. -- Two days after Tampa Bay Buccaneers starting running back Doug Martin was made a healthy scratch against the New Orleans Saints before a game that would essentially decide if they'd reach the playoffs, head coach Dirk Koetter stood by his decision and his previous defense of Martin. He wouldn't say what it means going forward though.
"As I said last week, we made a decision for the Saints game based on what I thought was best for our team that week and we'll do the same thing this week," Koetter said.
