Coach Talk

GRIDIRON GOD!!!!!!!!
You know what, GRIDIRON GOD!!!!!!!!, we do certainly admire the confidence. It takes moxie to start not one, not two, but FOUR players with zero points while still getting the win. We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we're finished.
Megatron's Mentality
It's entirely possible that Megatron's Mentality would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just 21 total targets this past week, their four wide receivers apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
