Coach Talk

Gałgany
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Not only did we almost triple The Fundamentals at WR (34.2 points to 11.5), we also almost quadrupled them at QB (28.74 points to 7.62).
The Fundamentals
There's a distinct possibility that The Fundamentals would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. With only 11 total targets in Week 11, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
