Coach Talk

The Dude Abides
Heckuva job shrugging off that two-game losing skid, The Dude Abides! Each fantasy team is met with adversity at some point or another... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Steve Harris
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 20 times in Week 14. Chemistry could be the primary issue, as that group pulled down just eight balls.
