Coach Talk

Renegades Świdnica
Listen, Renegades Świdnica, we do admire the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (James Bradberry), while still earning the win... talk about arrogant. Try those shenanigans next week against #92 Squad and see what happens!
Olsztyn Tigers
It's entirely possible that Olsztyn Tigers might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only 20 total targets this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
