Coach Talk

Albert's Dusty Team
You know what, Albert's Dusty Team, we do respect the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (J.K. Dobbins), while still earning the win. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we're finished.
Just Win Baby
Well, this week's problem is pretty easy to spot, Just Win Baby. Choosing to start Andy Dalton and Marquise Brown in a tough fantasy matchup... let's aim to play with a full deck of cards next time.
