Coach Talk

Berserk
Props to you, Berserk. Putting together a lineup that registered almost 76 points in Week 13. We should maintain this momentum as we head into our Week 14 matchup.
grant's Perfect Team
It's entirely possible that grant's Perfect Team might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just seven total targets in Week 13, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
