Coach Talk

Wentworth Point Utd
Listen, Wentworth Point Utd, we do certainly respect the confidence. It takes guts to start, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Brandon Graham and Denico Autry), while still earning the W. We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
The Whiskey Kid
Hey, it's possible that The Whiskey Kid might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating only 13 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their teams' offenses by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
