Coach Talk

💯
Listen, 💯, we do admire the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Lamar Jackson), while still getting the win... talk about arrogant.
The Derailed-Train
Fortunately, The Derailed-Train, Week 15's problem isn't exactly a brain teaser. Choosing to start the Green Bay Packers defense and Kendall Blanton in a tough fantasy matchup... let's just put this behind us and move on.
