Coach Talk

Triple G's Lozenges
Putting together a lineup that netted 119 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. We should maintain this momentum as we roll into our Week 16 matchup.
JJ's Palooka's 2
Hey, it's possible that JJ's Palooka's 2 would be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. With just 10 total targets in Week 15, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
