Coach Talk

Q
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Q! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve: our starting wide receivers were clearly outplayed by the opposition. Buoyed by a Chris Hogan goose-egg and Russell Gage (26 yards, no TDs), our seven WRs combined for just 24 points in Week 3. The starting wideouts for Phillip's Primo Team tripled us up with a score of 80. We need to bug the QB to get some more targets in Week 4!
Phillip's Primo Team
The problem this week is pretty easy to diagnose, Phillip's Primo Team. Choosing to start multiple zero-point players in a fantasy matchup where your opponent put up 261 points... let's deem this to be a learning experience and all agree that it won't happen again?
