Coach Talk

Josh's Team
Hey, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by almost tripling Debo at the wide receiver position (25.9 points to 9.4).
Debo
It's entirely possible that Debo might be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only nine total targets in Week 14, their four wide receivers apparently contributed to their respective offenses by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
