Coach Talk

andre's Team
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, andre's Team. It takes guts to deploy a starter with zero points (the Green Bay Packers defense), while still getting the win! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we're done.
Josh's Team
Luckily, Week 11's problem isn't exactly rocket science, Josh's Team. Choosing to start the Houston Texans defense, Donte Moncrief and Stephen Gostkowski in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied almost 134 points... let's deem this to be a learning experience and all agree that it won't happen again.
