Coach Talk

Start The Reactor
Nice job overcoming that two-game losing skid, Start The Reactor! Each fantasy team is faced with adversity somewhere along the way... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
BLACK LABS MATTER
With two catches on just three measly targets this past week, the starting running backs for BLACK LABS MATTER obviously need to smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
