Coach Talk

Slow Clap
Nice job, Slow Clap. Kudos on fielding a starting crew that nearly earned 199 points this past matchup. We should keep this momentum going as we step into our next challenge in Week 10.
Maxdeflation
Well, Maxdeflation, Week 9's problem isn't exactly rocket science. Starting Adam Thielen in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll all move on from this and assume it's not going to happen again.
