Coach Talk

What The Shit
You know what, What The Shit, we do certainly admire the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Terry McLaurin), while still earning the win... talk about arrogant. All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Debo
It's entirely possible that Debo might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 14 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
