Coach Talk

J1's Excellent Team
Listen J1's Excellent Team, the good news is that we won this matchup by an impressive 39.66 points. Even better news is that we know we're better than this, as our scoring average through 14 weeks was 103.56. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Charm City
There's a distinct possibility that Charm City may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just seven targets combined in Week 15, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
