Coach Talk

Parking Architects
You know what, Parking Architects, we do certainly respect the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Clyde Edwards-Helaire), while still getting the win... that's borderline cocky! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're finished.
The Portfolio
Well, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science, The Portfolio. Starting Blake Jarwin, Cam Akers, and Dak Prescott in a fantasy matchup where your opposition put up 135.64 points... let's just assume it won't happen again and move on.
