Coach Talk

MangoKid
Kudos to you, MangoKid. Fielding a lineup that netted more than 203 points in Week 5... let's tip our cap to the GM of Mack North, take this victory in stride, and continue on our way towards the RR Fantasy Dynasty League - S7 title.
Mack North
It's entirely possible that Mack North could be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With just 18 total targets this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their respective offenses by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
