Coach Talk

Unstoppable
Talk about righting the ship... The GM of Unstoppable shrugged off their three-game losing skid by putting up a staggering 127.8 points this past week!
The Placebo Arm
It's entirely possible that The Placebo Arm might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only 10 targets combined in Week 4, their three wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
