Coach Talk

Tidal Wave
You know what, Tidal Wave, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Jerry Jeudy and Salvon Ahmed), while still earning the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists.
Phillip's Team
Well, Phillip's Team, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science. Starting Jonnu Smith and Kenny Golladay in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll all put this behind us and move on.
