Coach Talk

Ross's Remarkable Team
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Ross's Remarkable Team. Starting a player with negative points (the Jacksonville Jaguars defense) while still earning the W... that's borderline cocky. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Dylan's Dazzling Team
It's entirely possible that Dylan's Dazzling Team would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only 10 targets as a group this past week, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
