Coach Talk

Space Coast
Nice job, Space Coast. Putting together a lineup that won by more than 18 points this past week... let's tip our cap to the GM of Cabernet Crazies, take this win in stride, and continue the march towards a fantasy title.
Cabernet Crazies
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our two wide receivers collectively saw a hearty 15 targets in Week 3. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group tallied just six receptions.
