Coach Talk

NogutsNoglory
Hey, football is all about finding and exploiting the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Ivanman at the wide receiver position (72 points to 27).
Ivanman
Hey, it's possible that Ivanman could be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just 23 targets combined in Week 11, their 10 starting pass-catchers (seven WR, three TE) apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
