Coach Talk

The Devil's Rejects
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to a sound performance by Philip Rivers, we utterly dominated THE DEEEEZZZZZ at the quarterback position this past week (25 points to 10). Rivers went 26-for-38 for 313 yards, two TDs, and two INTs in a one-point triumph over the Chiefs.
THE DEEEEZZZZZ
The problem in Week 15 was pretty easy to spot, THE DEEEEZZZZZ. Choosing to start Brett Maher in a fantasy matchup where your opposition put up 123 points... let's just assume it won't happen again and move on?
