Coach Talk

Manager-less Team
Hey, we admire the confidence, Manager-less Team. Deploying a starter with zero points (Cam Newton), while still earning a win... talk about arrogant! We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Howling Werebeast's
Hey, it's possible that Howling Werebeast's could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just 12 targets combined this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
