Coach Talk

Havoc
Assembling a lineup that netted more than 143 points this past week... we deem that to be a job done right. We should maintain this momentum as we head into our next matchup in Week 3.
Boomtown Brawlers
The problem this week is pretty easy to diagnose, Boomtown Brawlers. Choosing to start David Njoku in a fantasy matchup where your opponent put up over 143 points... we'll all just put this in the rear-view mirror and assume it's not going to happen again?
