Coach Talk

Blackfoot
Spotting mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Thanks to a thrilling showing from Ben Roethlisberger, we doubled up Gotham Giants at the quarterback position this past week (29.32 points to 12.18). Roethlisberger went 27-for-46 for 333 yards and four TDs in a 36-10 win over the Bengals.
Gotham Giants
There's a real chance that Gotham Giants could be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 15 targets combined in Week 10, their three wide receivers apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
