Coach Talk

The Mijo
Way to shrug off that two-match losing skid, The Mijo! Every fantasy team will surely be faced with adversity somewhere along the way... keep chipping away and good things will continue to happen.
Of Mariota and Men
The problem this week isn't exactly rocket science, Of Mariota and Men. Going with the Los Angeles Chargers defense in a tough fantasy matchup... let's all just move on from this and assume that something like this won't happen again.
