Coach Talk

DC Cowboys
Listen, DC Cowboys, we do appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (the Baltimore Ravens defense), while still earning a W. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Uwilltap2me
"Four score and seven points ago, our players brought forth, upon this fantasy matchup..." Wait, that's not how it goes (and unfortunately for us, not all fantasy squads are created equal). The 87 points our crew managed weren't enough to get the win this week. Continue giving it your all, Uwilltap2me, for as Honest Abe once said: "You cannot fail unless you quit."
