Coach Talk

Boomer Sooners
Whoa now Boomer Sooners, that's the type of showing we like to see! A completion percentage of 80% this past go round for Mr. Precision... Uh, sorry, I mean Deshaun Watson. That Colts defense didn't stand a chance! In what wound up being a tight matchup, the manager of Boomer Sooners is grateful for this type of precision and attention to detail.
Oblong balls
Fortunately, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science, Oblong balls. Choosing to start Marquez Valdes-Scantling in what turned out to be a tight fantasy matchup... let's attempt to play with a full deck of cards next time?
