Coach Talk

Gridiron Gladiators
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly dominating CHEEZO🐉HANY 🐲 at the wide receiver position (45.5 points to 9.2).
CHEEZO🐉HANY 🐲
It's entirely possible that CHEEZO🐉HANY 🐲 could be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just eight total targets this past week, their three wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
