Coach Talk

Lose-ke Nakamura
Nice job shrugging off that three-game winless streak, Lose-ke Nakamura! Every fantasy GM is sure to be hit with adversity somewhere along the way... keep on truckin' and take things one week at a time.
Cm punk
With literally zero passes thrown their direction this past week the starting RBs for Cm punk should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
