Coach Talk

The Fishguts
Creating mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Thanks to a sound showing from Jalen Hurts, we doubled up Ralph's Reasonable Team at the quarterback position this past week (34.02 points to 16.56). Hurts went 26-for-31 for 333 yards, one TD, and an INT in a 24-7 win over the Vikings.
Ralph's Reasonable Team
Keep your head up, Ralph's Reasonable Team! Trust us on this one, we've been in this business for quite a long time now. Obstacles pop up, you suffer some defeats, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little nit-picky with distasteful columns. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that when it comes to fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there.
