Coach Talk

2 Gurleys 1 Cup
Way to shrug off that two-game losing streak, 2 Gurleys 1 Cup! Each fantasy GM will surely be hit with adversity at some point or another... keep pushing forward and remember the 2022 season is far from over.
The 'Rona
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 24 times in Week 5. With just 10 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
