Coach Talk

My Team
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. Thanks to a solid display by Kirk Cousins, we doubled up I Have Spoken at the quarterback position this past week (28.52 points to 12). Cousins went 33-for-48 for 373 yards and three TDs in a six-point win over the Panthers.
I Have Spoken
Hey, it's possible that I Have Spoken might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 10 targets as a group in Week 6, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their teams' offenses by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
