Coach Talk

Panzer division
Hey, it's good to be confident, Panzer division. Starting a player with zero points (DeSean Jackson), while still getting the win... that's playing with fire! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we'll be done.
MrGreen Bay Packers
The problem this week isn't exactly rocket science, MrGreen Bay Packers. Starting Drew Brees in a fantasy matchup where your opponent put up 105.76 points... let's try to play with a full deck of cards next time?
