Coach Talk

Jessica B's Team
Listen, Jessica B's Team, we certainly appreciate the confidence. Starting a player with negative points (plus a zero-point player) while still earning a W... talk about arrogance. All we ask is to please keep those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Easton's Team
The problem in Week 10 is pretty easy to spot, Easton's Team. Choosing to start Mike Williams in a fantasy matchup where your opponent put up 159.7 points... we'll just assume it won't happen again and move on?
