Coach Talk

B's Sensational Team
Hey, we admire the confidence, B's Sensational Team. It takes gumption to start, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Sammy Watkins and Robert Woods), while still getting the win. Try those shenanigans next week against The Revolutionaries and we're sure to be toast!
Oscar S's Team
There's a decent chance that Oscar S's Team may be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only six total targets in Week 12, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
