Coach Talk

Hail Mary 🙏
Getting the win is most important, Hail Mary 🙏, but we've also identified one spot where we can get stronger as a team. Our starting quarterback was severely outclassed this past week. Our one men under center combined for only 8.95 points in Week 15, and the QBs for DOE for president literally quadrupled us with a score of 39.2.
DOE for president
Hey, it's possible that DOE for president may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. With just 19 total targets this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their teams' offenses by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
