Coach Talk

FantasyGod318
Bravo, FantasyGod318. Good job assembling a team that tallied more than 278 points in Week 1. We should keep this momentum going as we move on to what should be a favorable Week 2 matchup.
VikingDog!!!
We just took it easy so our players could dominate in Week 2, right? The seven starting offensive skill players on VikingDog!!! (four WRs, two RBs, one TE) collectively put up 465 yards and just two touchdowns in Week 1. Our opponent's skill players stuffed the statsheet by logging 754 yards and seven scores.
