Coach Talk

Euler's Method 4
Wow, Euler's Method 4, you really made a statement to your leaguemates with this blowout. In addition to a 44.78-point victory, you also jumped up from eighth place to sixth in the league standings!
Lucain's Legit Team
It's entirely possible that Lucain's Legit Team might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only two total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently made most of their contributions by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
