Coach Talk

deepball
Kudos to you, deepball. Assembling a starting crew that earned 163 points this past matchup. We should maintain this momentum as we move on to our Week 3 matchup.
Blazin Blitzers
The problem this week is pretty easy to diagnose, Blazin Blitzers. Starting Parris Campbell in a tough fantasy matchup... let's just move on from this and assume something like this won't be happening again?
