Coach Talk

Eastside Red Raiders
Hey now Eastside Red Raiders, that's what rigorous preparation and executing the game plan will do for ya! A completion percentage of 81 percent for Andrew Luck this past week. Quality *and* quantity! The Dolphins defense didn't see it coming! We know the GM of Eastside Red Raiders has got to be thankful for that efficiency and attention to detail.
Keith's Team
Fortunately, Keith's Team, this week's problem is pretty easy to identify. Going with quite a few zero-point players in a tough fantasy matchup... let's consider this to be an opportunity to get better and agree that it won't happen again.
