Coach Talk

Slob on my Cobb
Football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Case in point: we made that a point of emphasis by doubling up THE CIRCLE at running back this past week (57 points to 28).
THE CIRCLE
The problem in Week 5 is pretty easy to identify, THE CIRCLE. Choosing to start Teddy Bridgewater in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied 226 points... let's aim to play with a full deck of cards next time.
