Coach Talk

Jake's Majestic Team
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to a solid showing by Matt Ryan, we doubled up TheLord2's Team at the quarterback position this past week (27.84 points to 13.04). Ryan went 34-for-49 for 356 yards and three TDs (plus no INTs) in a 31-27 loss to the Buccaneers.
TheLord2's Team
Registering only a pair of receptions on six targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for TheLord2's Team should work to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more frequently.
