Coach Talk

David's Definitive Team
Heckuva job shrugging off that two-game losing skid, David's Definitive Team! Every fantasy GM is sure to be faced with adversity at some point or another... keep on truckin' and take things one week at a time.
Peasoup's Pleasant Team
There's a real chance that Peasoup's Pleasant Team may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just zero total targets this past week, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
