Coach Talk

DrewisHotSauce
Hey, we admire the confidence, DrewisHotSauce. Deploying a starter with zero points (DJ Chark Jr.), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire.
3rd String
Fortunately, 3rd String, this week's problem was fairly easy to identify. Starting the Cleveland Browns defense and Sam Ficken in a tough fantasy matchup... let's aim to play with a full deck of cards next time?
