Coach Talk

Lou's Legit Team
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Lou's Legit Team. It takes guts to deploy a starter with zero points (the Kansas City Chiefs defense), while still earning the W. Try those shenanigans next week and we're sure to be toast.
$$$$$$$
Fortunately, $$$$$$$, this week's problem was pretty easy to diagnose. Choosing to start the Jacksonville Jaguars defense and Evan Engram in a fantasy matchup where your opposition put up over 145 points... let's aim to move forward with a full deck of cards next time.
