Coach Talk

2 × Champ
Bravo, 2 × Champ. Deploying a lineup that won by more than 16 points this past week. Let's keep this momentum going as we step into a tricky challenge in Week 3.
THE CHOSEN ONE
With just three catches this past week, the starting RBs for THE CHOSEN ONE should work to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more frequently.
