Coach Talk

Lannister
Nice job shrugging off that three-game losing streak, Lannister! Each fantasy GM is presented with adversity at some point or another... keep pushing forward and remember the 2020 season is far from over.
Morningwood
Only six field goals on eight attempts? Seems like Tyler Bass should reevaluate his pre-kick process after that sort of performance.
