Coach Talk

Caribbean Bombers
Identifying mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Thanks to an awesome showing by Drew Brees, we doubled up Cedric's TPSer's at the quarterback position this past week (67 points to 33). Brees had his way against the Colts defense, completing 29 of 30 passes for 307 yards and four touchdowns.
Cedric's TPSer's
Just like the NFL's new tackling rules, it's important to keep your chin up, Cedric's TPSer's! Trust us on this one, we've been in this business for quite a long time now. Obstacles pop up, you suffer some defeats, the fans get whiny, and your local beat writers get a little nit-picky with distasteful columns. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that in the world of fantasy football, winning really does cure all.
