Coach Talk

grady's Fabulous Team
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by soundly outplaying Enrique's Tip-Top Team at the wide receiver position (21.1 points to 8.4).
Enrique's Tip-Top Team
It's entirely possible that Enrique's Tip-Top Team would be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only five targets combined this past week, their two wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
