Coach Talk

sky's Notable Team
Hey, quick math, sky's Notable Team... what happens when you multiply 11 times zero? A pretty lucky victory against What A Rush!, if you ask us! Playing 11 starters who didn't record any points this past week - how in the heck did we earn this win?
What A Rush!
Hey, it's possible that What A Rush! may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just 10 total targets this past week, their four wide receivers apparently contributed to their teams' offenses by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
