Coach Talk

Sorry Eiferted
You know what, Sorry Eiferted, we do respect the confidence. It's a bold move to play a player with zero points (Leighton Vander Esch), while still earning a win. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Manager-less Team and we're sure to be toast.
BeastMode Training
Hey, it's possible that BeastMode Training could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only 22 targets combined in Week 9, their six starting pass-catchers (five WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
