Coach Talk

Mr big puff
Listen, Mr big puff, we do appreciate the confidence. Starting a player with zero points (Alfred Morris), while still earning the win... that's borderline arrogant. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week and we're sure to be toast!
Debo
It's entirely possible that Debo might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 12 total targets this past week, their four wide receivers apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
