Coach Talk

Crimson Tide 🏈
Nice work, Crimson Tide 🏈. Kudos on deploying a lineup that posted 240 points this past week.
Stump Jumpers
There's a decent chance that Stump Jumpers might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just seven total targets in Week 18, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently spent the majority of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
