Coach Talk

Le’VeGONE
Heckuva job overcoming that four-game winless streak, Le’VeGONE! Every fantasy GM is faced with adversity somewhere along the way... keep on truckin' and take things one week at a time.
Underground Railroad
"Not seeing many looks" isn't an excuse this week for Underground Railroad. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 15. With just eight total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
