Coach Talk

Tachov Titans
Way to shrug off that two-match losing streak, Tachov Titans! Each fantasy GM is presented with adversity at some point or another... keep showing resilience like this and good things will continue to happen.
Trut Miners
Registering just three catches on five targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Trut Miners should work to smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
