Coach Talk

Raul Perez's Team
You know, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. Fueled by a stellar performance by Joe Burrow, we doubled up Miami sharks at the quarterback position this past week (58.35 points to 28). Burrow had his way against the Ravens secondary, going 37-of-46 for 525 yards and four passing TDs.
Miami sharks
Well, Miami sharks, this week's problem was fairly easy to diagnose. Choosing to start Ty Johnson and Cole Holcomb in a tough fantasy matchup... let's try to play with a full deck of cards next time.
