Coach Talk

R Train
Heckuva job shrugging off that three-game losing streak, R Train! Every fantasy GM will surely be faced with adversity at some point or another... keep on truckin' and take things one week at a time.
Chalupa Batman
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 21 targets in Week 11. Chemistry could be the primary issue, as that group reeled in just 12 catches.
