Coach Talk

Sunnydale Scoobies
You know what, Sunnydale Scoobies, we do appreciate the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Odell Beckham Jr.), while still earning a W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists. We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be toast.
Owen Sixteen
We should use this loss as a learning experience and regroup for next week, Owen Sixteen. Read up on what the Yahoo! Fantasy Experts are advising and configure the strongest possible lineup in Week 2.
