Coach Talk

Sir Luka
Putting together a lineup that won by more than 67 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. Let's take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of BLM, and continue pushing forward to a fantasy championship.
BLM
There's a chance that BLM may be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only seven targets combined in Week 3, their three wide receivers apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
