Coach Talk

KGG FB
Listen, KGG FB, we applaud you on the confidence. Playing a starter with negative points (plus two zero-point players) while still earning a win... talk about arrogance. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Butler Jets
Well, Week 14's problem is pretty easy to diagnose, Butler Jets. Choosing to start Le'Veon Bell in what wound up being a tight fantasy matchup... let's attempt to play with a full deck of cards next time.
