Coach Talk

Jujus Best
A big key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by some stellar yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a big disparity this week. Our three backfield starters put up 148 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs on Superman's Team (252 total yards to 104), and we ended up tripling them at the position, 27.85 points to 8.45.
Superman's Team
There's a chance that Superman's Team might be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only zero total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
