Coach Talk

Barb's Unreal Team
Listen, Barb's Unreal Team, we applaud you on the confidence. It takes real gumption to field a starter with negative points (plus multiple zero-point players) while still getting the win. All we ask is to please limit those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Cake
Hey, it's possible that Cake could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 15 targets combined in Week 14, their five wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
