Coach Talk

Sooners
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Fueled by great performances by Christian McCaffrey and Todd Gurley II, our squad definitely made that a point of emphasis this past week. We quadrupled Lazy Laughing Lizard at the running back position (47.5 points to 11). McCaffrey had 179 total yards and a TD, while Gurley II logged 70 yards and two scores.
Lazy Laughing Lizard
Luckily, this week's problem is pretty easy to identify, Lazy Laughing Lizard. Going with George Kittle and Damien Williams in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll deem this to be an opportunity to get better and all agree that it won't happen again?
