Coach Talk

enrique's Majestic Team
Well, we do applaud the confidence this past week, enrique's Majestic Team. It takes a special kind of moxie to field a player with negative points (plus a zero-point player) while still getting a win. All we ask is to please keep those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Cher's Champion Team
Hey, it's possible that Cher's Champion Team could be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just seven total targets this past week, their two wide receivers apparently contributed primarily by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
