Coach Talk
Kentucky Zombie
This sport is all about creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by quadrupling Chris's Team at the wide receiver position (60.8 points to 13.7).
Chris's Team
Hey, it's possible that Chris's Team could be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just six total targets in Week 8, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
