Coach Talk

Boomtown Brawlers
Hey, this sport is all about spotting and exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a sound performance by Kirk Cousins, we doubled up ExigentCircumstances at the quarterback position this past week (25.5 points to 12.35). Cousins went 23-for-32 for 220 yards and two TDs in a 28-24 win over the Cowboys.
ExigentCircumstances
The problem this week isn't exactly rocket science, ExigentCircumstances. Choosing to start George Kittle and the Houston Texans defense in what was ultimately a tight fantasy matchup... we'll use this as a learning experience and agree that it won't happen again.
