Coach Talk

Roadhouse Rebels
Hey, football is all about creating mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Finkle & Einhorn at the wide receiver position (37.95 points to 17.9).
Finkle & Einhorn
It's entirely possible that Finkle & Einhorn could be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. With just 13 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
