Coach Talk

cw's Team
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Our team took that to heart this past week and thoroughly dominated FreshPrinceOfHelaire at the quarterback position (49 points to 10).
FreshPrinceOfHelaire
It's entirely possible that FreshPrinceOfHelaire would be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just eight targets as a group in Week 9, their five wide receivers apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
