Coach Talk

Beat-a-son
Creating mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Thanks to a thrilling showing from Deshaun Watson, we thoroughly dominated Coupe at the quarterback position this past week (25 points to 4). Watson went 22-for-28 for 294 yards and two TDs (plus no INTs) in a 29-22 win over the Jets.
Coupe
"Four score and seven points ago, our players brought forth, upon this fantasy matchup..." Wait, that's not how it goes (and unfortunately for us, not all fantasy squads are created equal). Our 87 points weren't enough to get the win this week. Continue pushing forward, Coupe, for as the great Abraham Lincoln once said: "You cannot fail unless you quit."
