Coach Talk

Da Beagle Dawgs
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Case in point: we really took that to heart by doubling up Daniel's Dandy Team at running back this past week (33.57 points to 13.47).
Daniel's Dandy Team
There's a real chance that Daniel's Dandy Team may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 12 targets as a group this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (two WR, two TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
