Coach Talk

HELMETS
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Thanks to a sound outing by Kyler Murray, we royally dominated Yoga Pants at the quarterback position this past week (34.35 points to 9.7). Murray went 22-for-32 for 245 yards, one TD, and an INT in a two-point win over the Bills.
Yoga Pants
I'd suggest that you use this past week as a learning experience and regroup for next week, Yoga Pants. Take a gander at what the Yahoo! Fantasy Experts are advising and deploy the best lineup possible in Week 11.
