g-men extended their win streak to four games with a convincing victory over Thats Weird, cruising to a 244.72-82.20 win. Thats Weird remains winless for the season.

Patrick Mahomes (39.6 points) and Will Fuller V (18.3) carried the flag for Thats Weird in defeat. g-men (4-2) will look to add to their success against Manager-less Team, while Thats Weird (0-6) will face off against A Team Has No Name in an effort to get back on track.

Coach Talk

g-men
Listen, g-men, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to roll out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Bobby Wagner, Demone Harris, and Nick Kwiatkoski), while still getting the W. Try those shenanigans next week against Manager-less Team and see what happens.
Thats Weird
Hey, it's possible that Thats Weird would be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just 20 targets as a group in Week 6, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
