Coach Talk

Disco Stu
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Thanks to a stellar performance from Dak Prescott, we doubled up Steel Falcons at the quarterback position this past week (47 points to 19). Prescott went 29-for-46 for 444 yards and three TDs (plus no INTs) in a 35-27 win over the Lions.
Steel Falcons
Well, Steel Falcons, Week 11's problem is fairly easy to diagnose. Going with Jordan Howard in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied 140 points... we'll all just move on from this and assume something like this won't be happening again.
