Coach Talk

1 eyed Shelly's team
Nice job shrugging off that two-match winless skid, 1 eyed Shelly's team! Every fantasy team is sure to be faced with adversity somewhere along the way... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
NE 2
Hey, at least there were no celebration penalties: The six offensive skill starters on NE 2 (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) combined to register a whopping 447 yards from scrimmage. Unfortunately, not one of those players could find his way to the end zone in Week 15.
