Coach Talk

Gettin Cheesehead
Nice job, Gettin Cheesehead. Kudos on deploying a lineup that blew the opposition out by a whopping 39.78 points this past matchup. We'll keep this momentum going as we move on to our Week 16 matchup.
SenDiesel
It's entirely possible that SenDiesel would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only seven targets as a group in Week 15, their two wide receivers apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
