Coach Talk

S's Super Team
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up fantasy's Team at the wide receiver position (41.2 points to 16.8).
fantasy's Team
It's entirely possible that fantasy's Team might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With just 15 targets combined in Week 12, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
