Coach Talk

Raidersbully's Team
Hey, we admire the confidence, Raidersbully's Team. Starting not one, but TWO players with zero points (Rob Gronkowski and Todd Gurley II), while still getting the W... talk about arrogant! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
winners Team
The problem in Week 16 was pretty easy to identify, winners Team. Starting Cam Newton in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied nearly 111 points... let's consider this to be an opportunity to get better and agree that it won't happen again?
