Busty Nuns
Hey, we admire the confidence, Busty Nuns. It takes real guts to deploy not one, not two, but FOUR starters with zero points while still earning a win.
Horse Shoe Crew
Well, Horse Shoe Crew, this week's problem isn't exactly a brain teaser. Going with Javonte Williams, Dallas Goedert, and Elijah Mitchell in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll just put this behind us and move on?
