Coach Talk

The Trubisky Fanboys
This sport is all about spotting the mismatches. Fueled by a awesome performance by Deshaun Watson, we doubled up Bella’s Boxers at the quarterback position this past week (36.46 points to 16.64). Watson went 29-for-40 for 339 yards and two TDs in a 32-30 loss to the Eagles.
Bella’s Boxers
It's entirely possible that Bella’s Boxers could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. With only 10 targets as a group in Week 16, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
