Coach Talk

yard crew
Hey, we admire the confidence, yard crew. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Travis Kelce), while still getting the win. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we're toast.
Laces Out
With three catches on just four measly targets this past week, the starting RBs for Laces Out clearly should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to start checking down more frequently.
