Coach Talk

andre's Team
Kudos on deploying a lineup that netted 117.74 points this past week. We did what we had to do and took care of business. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Ready Player One, take this victory in stride, and continue on our way towards the Fantasy Football 2018 league title.
Ready Player One
Your starting QB tossed one interception and literally no touchdowns? We may should have a little debate here. Was Aaron Rodgers actually that out-of-sync with the receiving crew, or was the Bears secondary just that great against the pass? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of Ready Player One?
