Coach Talk

Jim's Choice Team
Listen Jim's Choice Team, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 129.28 points through Week 3, our crew has certainly proven that it's even stronger than the 103.1 we needed to win this past week!
yee's Team
It's entirely possible that yee's Team may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only four targets combined this past week, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their teams' offenses by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
