Coach Talk

Phillip's Primo Team
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Phillip's Primo Team. Our starting wide receivers were significantly outplayed by the opposition. Buoyed by a Jaron Brown goose-egg and nothing from Zach Pascal, our six WRs combined for just 21 points in Week 12. The starting wideouts for Barb's Unreal Team doubled us up with a score of 51. Let's put some extra effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
Barb's Unreal Team
Hey, it's possible that Barb's Unreal Team would be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. With only 26 targets as a group in Week 12, their nine starting pass-catchers (six WR, three TE) apparently contributed primarily by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
