Coach Talk

Colorado Supermax
Creating mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Fueled by some monster yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a noticeable disparity this week. Our four starting backs logged 205 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs on Deshaun of the dead (317 total yards to 112), as we ultimately tripled them at the position (62.36 points to 17.96).
Deshaun of the dead
Hey, it's possible that Deshaun of the dead might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only 21 targets combined in Week 17, their six starting pass-catchers (four WR, two TE) apparently made most of their contributions by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
