Coach Talk

Bail Kings Era
Deploying a lineup that won by more than 36 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done. We should keep this momentum going as we head into our next challenge in Week 6.
Rodgers Neighborhood
It's entirely possible that Rodgers Neighborhood may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only 10 total targets in Week 5, their four starting pass-catchers (two WR, two TE) apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
