Coach Talk

Bambi
Well Bambi, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than 77 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through Week 13 stood at 154.75. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
Seattle Cyclones
There's a decent chance that Seattle Cyclones may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 17 total targets in Week 14, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
