Coach Talk

┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐
Nice job overcoming that two-game winless skid, ┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐! Every fantasy team will surely be presented with adversity at some point or another... keep at it and good things will continue to happen.
Shane's Team
Logging one reception on only two measly targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Shane's Team should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to dump it down more frequently.
