Coach Talk

This Guy's the Limit
Way to shrug off that two-game losing skid, This Guy's the Limit! Every fantasy team is sure to be hit with adversity somewhere along the way... keep at it and remember that this season is far from over.
Orlando City Bombers
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 25 targets in Week 5. With just 14 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
