Coach Talk

Sir Luka
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling Metropolitans at the wide receiver position (46.5 points to 15).
Metropolitans
Hey, it's possible that Metropolitans could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. With only 14 targets as a group this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
