Coach Talk

DangeRuss
Hey DangeRuss, the good news is that we took this matchup by 4.49 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through 14 weeks was 124.84. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Lucky and I know it!
The problem in Week 15 isn't exactly rocket science, Lucky and I know it!. Starting Keenan Allen in what turned out to be a tight fantasy matchup... let's just assume something like this won't happen again and move on?
