Coach Talk

Sayers Monsters
Deploying a starting crew that won by over 24 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. We should take this victory in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Sandbagging, and continue marching forward to a fantasy title.
Sandbagging
Hey, it's possible that Sandbagging could be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. With only 19 targets as a group this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
