Coach Talk

KC Chiefs 0-5 Start
Hey, we admire the confidence, KC Chiefs 0-5 Start. Playing a starter with zero points (Romeo Okwara), while still getting the win... talk about arrogant. Try those shenanigans next week against London Gentlemen and we'll be toast.
Shark bait
Hey, it's possible that Shark bait may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 10 total targets this past week, their three starting pass-catchers (three WR, zero TE) apparently contributed primarily by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
