Coach Talk

Kingslayers
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, Kingslayers. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Jerick McKinnon and Jordan Reed), while still earning the win... that's playing with fire. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week and see what happens!
Demo men
Hey, Demo men... Sometimes that's the way the cookie crumbles. If fantasy football didn't offer a true challenge then winning wouldn't be as awesome, ya know?
