Coach Talk

Billsrback
Listen, Billsrback, we do certainly admire the confidence. Starting not one, not two, but SIX players with zero points while still getting the win... that's playing with fire! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're done.
Phillip's Primo Team
It's entirely possible that Phillip's Primo Team may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With only 38 targets as a group in Week 2, their 10 starting pass-catchers (seven WR, three TE) apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
