Coach Talk

Team Double Dips
Earning the win is most important, Team Double Dips, but we definitely know of one spot where we can get better as a team: our wide receivers were thoroughly overmatched by the opposition. Held back by a Michael Crabtree goose-egg and Jarvis Landry (22 yards, no TDs), our three WRs combined for only 22.43 points in Week 10. The starting wideouts for The Real Slim Brady almost tripled us up with a score of 62.5. Let's sweet-talk the offensive coordinator to get some more targets in Week 11!
The Real Slim Brady
The problem this week is pretty easy to diagnose, The Real Slim Brady. Going with Kenjon Barner, Justin Tucker, and Latavius Murray in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll all put this behind us and move on.
