Coach Talk

Bloodlust
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches, right? Thanks to a stellar outing from Kirk Cousins, we thoroughly outplayed Blade Executioner at the quarterback position this past week (26.02 points to 7.33). Cousins went 33-for-48 for 373 yards and three TDs in a six-point victory over the Panthers.
Blade Executioner
Like the NFL's tackling rules, remember to keep your head up, Blade Executioner! You can take our word for it, we've been in this industry for quite a long time now. Adversity happens, losses pile up, the fans get a little whiny, and your local beat writers turn nit-picky with distasteful columns. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that when it comes to fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there.
