Coach Talk

will's Team
Heckuva job shrugging off that three-game losing skid, will's Team! Every fantasy team is presented with adversity somewhere along the way... keep chipping away and remember the 2018 season is far from over.
Roylinc
Your quarterback threw one interception and not a single touchdown? We might need to go back and review the game tape. Was Ryan Fitzpatrick really that out-of-sync with the receiving crew, or were the just that good defending the pass? The judgment is yours to cast... Roylinc. The Buccaneers have a bye next week, so luckily you have some extra time to think on that one!
