Coach Talk

BIGGEE_DOWNWRAIDERS_4LIFE
Nice job deploying a lineup that won by 18.5 points this past week. We did what was needed and took care of business. We should take this W in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Raiders4Life, and continue our march towards a fantasy championship.
Raiders4Life
Well, Raiders4Life, this week's problem was pretty easy to diagnose. Starting Denzel Perryman in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied 212 points... let's all just assume it won't happen again and move on.
