Coach Talk

Shallee's Champion Team
Bravo, Shallee's Champion Team. Fielding a team that logged almost 136 points in Week 16.
J1's Excellent Team
The problem in Week 16 isn't exactly rocket science, J1's Excellent Team. Starting the Baltimore Ravens defense and Darren Waller in a fantasy matchup where your opposition put up nearly 136 points... let's use this as a learning experience and agree that it's not going to happen again.
