Coach Talk

L-Diggity
Heckuva job shrugging off that two-game winless skid, L-Diggity! Every fantasy team is sure to be presented with adversity at some point or another... keep chipping away and remember the 2022 season is far from over.
Huss Monkeys
"Not getting enough opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week for Huss Monkeys. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 30 targets in Week 3. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they hauled in only 15 receptions.
