Coach Talk

SchMoke's Goons
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Mr& Mrs.Moore at the wide receiver position (22.3 points to 10.1).
Mr& Mrs.Moore
Hey, it's possible that Mr& Mrs.Moore would be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only 13 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
