Coach Talk

☆GOLD STANDARD ☆
You know what, ☆GOLD STANDARD ☆, we do certainly admire the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Deebo Samuel and Antonio Gibson), while still getting the W. We just ask you 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.
No Shorts or Losses
Hey, it's possible that No Shorts or Losses could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 14 total targets in Week 14, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
