Coach Talk

TheGuiseIsLoose!
Way to shrug off that three-match losing streak, TheGuiseIsLoose!! Every fantasy GM is sure to be faced with adversity somewhere along the way... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
VACHout
"Not seeing many looks" really isn't an excuse this week for VACHout. Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 35 targets in Week 10. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group pulled down just 19 receptions.
