Coach Talk

Hammertime
Nice job overcoming that two-game losing skid, Hammertime! Each fantasy team is faced with adversity at some point or another... keep chipping away and remember the 2020 season is far from over.
steven's Dandy Team
There's a chance that steven's Dandy Team would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only five targets as a group this past week, their two wide receivers apparently made most of their contributions by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
