Coach Talk

BULLDOZERS
Well, we do applaud the confidence this past week, BULLDOZERS. Starting a starter with negative points (the Atlanta Falcons defense) while still getting the win... that's playing with fire. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
DA BULLS
Fortunately, DA BULLS, this week's problem is pretty easy to spot. Choosing to start Melvin Ingram III, Alshon Jeffery, and Philip Rivers in a fantasy matchup where your opposition put up 283.74 points... we'll consider this to be an opportunity to get better and agree that it's not going to happen again?
