Coach Talk

Superman's Team
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, Superman's Team. It's a bold move to deploy, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Stephen Gostkowski and Cam Newton), while still getting the win! 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'll be done.
Jules Winnfield
There's a real chance that Jules Winnfield may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With only 12 total targets in Week 10, their four wide receivers apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
