Coach Talk

Cesar Romero's Joker
Mission accomplished, Cesar Romero's Joker. Fielding a lineup that netted 153.46 points in Week 2. We should take this win in stride, tip our hat to the GM of 3rd and Long, and continue our march towards a fantasy title.
3rd and Long
Wait, our starting QB tossed an interception and no touchdowns? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape. Were the Rams truly that stout defending the pass, or was Drew Brees just that off-rhythm with his receiving crew? You'll need to decide one way or the other, 3rd and Long, as you manage your lineup for Week 3 and beyond!
