Coach Talk

Trash Pandas
Well, we do admire the confidence this past week, Trash Pandas. Playing not one, not two, but THREE starters with zero points (Yannick Ngakoue, Kyle Fuller, and Antoine Winfield Jr.), while still getting the win... that's playing with fire.
Jagernauts
There's a decent chance that Jagernauts would be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just five targets as a group in Week 15, their two wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
