Coach Talk

Javier Cantu's Groovy Team
Hey, the key to football is spotting and exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Lee's Legendary Team at the wide receiver position (34.2 points to 14.5).
Lee's Legendary Team
There's a real possibility that Lee's Legendary Team may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With just 10 targets combined in Week 12, their three wide receivers apparently spent the majority of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
