Coach Talk

Macheteros™
Assembling a lineup that won by over 10 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done. Let's take this win in stride, tip our cap to the GM of The Footballas, and continue on our way towards a fantasy championship.
The Footballas
Logging just two targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for The Footballas should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
