Coach Talk

future flash
We're curious if the GM of future flash was feeling a bit squeamish this one? In a matchup that was ultimately decided by only 0.05 points, Robbie Gould (0-of-1 on the day) decided that going 1-for-1 on field goals would've been just a bit too boring. Remember folks, every point matters!
Destroyers
The problem in Week 15 isn't exactly rocket science, Destroyers. Starting Derwin James Jr. in what turned out to be a tight fantasy matchup... let's attempt to play with a full deck of cards next time.
