Coach Talk

SG Redeye’s
Football is all about creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by quadrupling The bottom feeders at the wide receiver position (63.3 points to 15.7).
The bottom feeders
There's a possibility that The bottom feeders would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just 16 targets combined this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
