Coach Talk

Gridiron Gladiators
Listen Gridiron Gladiators, the good news is that we took this matchup by 81 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 6 stood at 122.25. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
ROCK-n-REDRAIDERS
Hey, it's possible that ROCK-n-REDRAIDERS would be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 13 targets combined in Week 7, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
