Coach Talk

Kansas City Chiefs
Well, we do respect the confidence this past week, Kansas City Chiefs. Deploying not one, not two, but FOUR starters with zero points while still getting the W... that's playing with fire! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we're finished.
Washington 🏈 Team
It's entirely possible that Washington 🏈 Team may be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing only 14 total targets this past week, their three wide receivers apparently spent the majority of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
