Coach Talk

Jokers Wild
Hey, it's good to be confident, Jokers Wild. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Trey Burton and Jayon Brown), while still getting a win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists.
Tic - Boo
Fortunately, Tic - Boo, this week's problem isn't exactly a brain teaser. Choosing to start Noah Fant in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied almost 501 points... let's use this as a learning experience and agree that it's not going to happen again?
