Coach Talk

Red N Goal Diggaz
Whoa, that Falcons secondary didn't see it coming! 36 completions on 44 attempts: good enough for an 82 percent completion percentage for Justin Herbert. We know the GM of Red N Goal Diggaz is grateful for the attention to detail.
Jon Jon's Team
Fortunately, Jon Jon's Team, this week's problem was fairly easy to spot. Starting the Baltimore Ravens defense in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied more than 164 points... let's deem this to be an opportunity to get better and agree that it won't happen again.
