Coach Talk

Boondock Saints 16
Well Boondock Saints 16, the good news is that we won this matchup by 1.72 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through Week 14 stood at 106.1. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Take It By FORCE!!!!
There's a decent chance that Take It By FORCE!!!! might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 12 total targets this past week, their three wide receivers apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
