Coach Talk

Arnie Weinmeister
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, Arnie Weinmeister. Starting not one, but TWO players with zero points (Chris Hogan and Jordy Nelson), while still earning a W... that's borderline arrogant! All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Joe Montana
Luckily, Week 10's problem was pretty easy to diagnose, Joe Montana. Starting Tre'Quan Smith in a tough fantasy matchup... let's all just put this in the rear-view mirror and assume that something like this won't happen again.
