Coach Talk

Ibbyszn
Assembling a lineup that won by a whopping 53.6 points this past week... we deem that to be a job well done.
Taylor Moon
Well, Taylor Moon, this week's problem is pretty easy to spot. Starting Nick Folk in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll all move on from this and assume that something like this won't happen again?
