Coach Talk

Chubb-yChase-rsLoveBigGurleys
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches, right? Fueled by a stellar showing from Josh Allen, we tripled Generals at the quarterback position this past week (37.22 points to 11.8). Allen had a field day in a blowout win over the Football Team, going 32-of-43 for 358 yards and four passing TDs.
Generals
The problem in Week 3 is pretty easy to identify, Generals. Choosing to start Adam Trautman in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll just move on from this and assume it's not going to happen again.
