Coach Talk

GangGreen(a) Team
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no other way for us to spin this, GangGreen(a) Team. Our starting running backs were utterly overmatched by the opposition. Held back by D'Onta Foreman (40 total yards, no TDs) and Tony Pollard (70 yards, no TDs), our three RBs combined for only 18.5 points in Week 11, while the starting backfield for Arizona Golub doubled us up with a score of 45.2. Let's bug the offensive coordinator to get some more touches in Week 12!
Arizona Golub
It's entirely possible that Arizona Golub may be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just zero targets combined this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
