Coach Talk

william's Superb Team
Hey, we admire the confidence, william's Superb Team. It's a bold move to start a player with zero points (D'Andre Swift), while still getting the W. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
JSchiZo5150's Tip-Top Team
It's entirely possible that JSchiZo5150's Tip-Top Team would be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just 15 targets as a group this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
