Coach Talk

Goldfinger Slingers
Listen Goldfinger Slingers, the good news is that we took this matchup by a whopping 214.6 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through four weeks was 476.15. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
Last Man Standing
There's a possibility that Last Man Standing would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 12 targets as a group this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently spent the majority of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
