Coach Talk

bladen's Unreal Team
Putting together a starting crew that tallied almost 28 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do. We should tip our cap to the GM of Hancocks Beast, take this W in stride, and continue the march towards a fantasy championship.
Hancocks Beast
It's entirely possible that Hancocks Beast could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. With only 10 targets combined in Week 9, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently made the bulk of their contributions by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
