Coach Talk

Joe Bidens nephew
Hey, football is all about spotting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by soundly outplaying Fireflys at the wide receiver position (67 points to 25.5).
Fireflys
There's a possibility that Fireflys may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 17 targets as a group this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their teams' offenses by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
