Coach Talk

Joey's Team
Way to shrug off that 13-game losing streak, Joey's Team! Every fantasy team is faced with adversity somewhere along the way... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Carson’s Team
Unless Carson’s Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 22 times in Week 14. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group hauled in just 13 receptions.
