Coach Talk

PJ
Infinite hours in the film room and on the practice field. Full attention from all 11 guys in the huddle. Each and every route, every single throw, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. The outcome? A spectacular 23 connections on 27 attempts: good enough for an 85 percent completion percentage for Dak Prescott this past week. That Chargers secondary didn't see it coming!.
Raiders soul smasher
Luckily, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science, Raiders soul smasher. Choosing to start several zero-point players in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied more than 170 points... we'll just put this in the rear-view mirror and assume that something like this won't happen again?
