Coach Talk

Lincoln High
Deploying a starting crew that earned 479.65 points this past week... we did what we needed to do and took care of business. We should keep this momentum going as we head into what's sure to be an extremely tough matchup in Week 4.
Vitor Kenji's Team
There's a distinct possibility that Vitor Kenji's Team could be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just 22 total targets in Week 3, their six starting pass-catchers (five WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
