Coach Talk

TwoBrownsOneKupp
Earning the win is most important, TwoBrownsOneKupp, but we definitely know of one spot where we can improve as a team. Our wide receivers were severely outmatched by the opposition. Held back by Cooper Kupp (35 total yards, no TDs) and Marvin Jones Jr. (46 yards, no TDs), our three WRs combined for only 24.3 points in Week 12. The starting wideouts for Sprint Right Option nearly tripled us up with a score of 68.2. Let's sweet-talk the offensive coordinator to get some more targets in Week 13!
Sprint Right Option
Even though we didn't get the win this past week, let's remember to be thankful for the bounty of goodness that is fantasy football.
