Coach Talk

Fungible Tokens
Hey, it's good to be confident, Fungible Tokens. Deploying a starter with zero points (Lamar Jackson), while still earning the W... talk about arrogant. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we're toast.
No Fear Elite
It's entirely possible that No Fear Elite might be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just seven targets combined in Week 16, their three wide receivers apparently made the bulk of their contributions by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
