Coach Talk

Michael's Dandy Team
You know what, Michael's Dandy Team, we do admire the confidence. Playing a starter with zero points (Tyler Lockett), while still getting the W... that's playing with fire! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Cooper's Crazy Team
Fortunately, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science, Cooper's Crazy Team. Going with Julio Jones and Austin Hooper in a tough fantasy matchup... let's just assume something like this won't happen again and move on.
