Coach Talk

Wrecking crew
Hey, it's good to be confident, Wrecking crew. It's a bold move to start not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Micah Hyde, Dak Prescott, and Rontez Miles), while still earning the W.
Hi Mom
Well, Hi Mom, Week 15's problem is fairly easy to diagnose. Choosing to start James Conner in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied nearly 100 points... let's consider this to be an opportunity to get better and agree that it's not going to happen again.
