Before you go and nyuck-nyuck me like I'm some kinda wise guy, please realize that both teams' starting tight ends are named Zach Miller.
The Raiders' Zach Miller needs no introduction. He was a Pro Bowl alternate last year, and has led the Raiders in receptions for the last two seasons plus the current one.
The Jaguars' Zach Miller is a second-year player who did not begin starting until mid-November of this year. He's got 20 catches this season for 216 yards.
