Coach Talk

BALLSWIN
You know what, BALLSWIN, we do appreciate the confidence. It takes a certain kind of gumption to deploy a player with zero points (Trey Flowers), while still getting the W. We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it in the playoffs and we'll be done.
MangoKid
Fortunately, MangoKid, Week 11's problem isn't exactly advanced calculus. Choosing to start Khalil Mack, Desmond King II, and Brian Burns in a tough fantasy matchup... let's all put this in the rear-view mirror and assume it's not going to happen again.
