Coach Talk

john's Legit Team
Identifying mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Thanks to a sound performance by Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up Prashant's Ingeneous Team at the quarterback position this past week (24.98 points to 12). Mahomes went 32-for-47 for 397 yards, two TDs, and two INTs in a 31-13 triumph over the Football Team.
Prashant's Ingeneous Team
It's entirely possible that Prashant's Ingeneous Team could be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 12 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
