Coach Talk

Dak to the Future
Nice job assembling a lineup that tallied 112 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Hoffman Hillbillies, take this win in stride, and continue on our way towards a fantasy championship.
Hoffman Hillbillies
Ugh, talk about old-school ground n' pound: The starting RBs for Hoffman Hillbillies collectively registered just three targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to draw up a screen play or two in Week 9!
