Coach Talk

Mutinous Apes
Assembling a lineup that recorded almost 185 points this past week... we deem that to be a job done right. Let's take this win in stride, tip our hat to the GM of WarEagle, and continue our march towards a fantasy championship.
WarEagle
With just three catches this past week, the starting running backs for WarEagle should remind their quarterbacks to check down more often (and dial up a screen play or two).
