Coach Talk

New York Jets
Hey, we admire the confidence, New York Jets. Starting not one, not two, but FOUR players with zero points while still earning a W... talk about arrogant! All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Adam's Matchless Team
There's a chance that Adam's Matchless Team would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just 17 total targets this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
