Coach Talk

FantasyFootballTeam
Creating mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team created a noticeable disparity this week. Our backfield tallied 204 total yards than the RBs on DIVINO (340 yards from scrimmage to 136), and we ended up tripling them at the position (92 points to 27.2).
DIVINO
You can feel good knowing that your generosity didn't go unnoticed, DIVINO. It takes a true winner to help someone like FantasyFootballTeam succeed this week. Who knows, maybe you'll play them again after they've clinched a playoff spot, and they bench a couple good players that week to return the favor!
