Coach Talk

Leon's Team
Hey, the key to football is finding the mismatches, right? Fueled by a stellar performance from Deshaun Watson, we nearly quadrupled Enrico G's Team at the quarterback position this past week (22.36 points to 5.74). Watson went 22-for-28 for 294 yards and two TDs in a 29-22 win over the Jets.
Enrico G's Team
It's entirely possible that Enrico G's Team would be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With only 12 targets as a group in Week 15, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
