Coach Talk

Da Bears
You know, football is all about finding the mismatches. Fueled by good production from our ball-carriers, our team took that to heart this past week. We doubled Big Ballers up at the running back position (22.6 points to 10.8). Austin Ekeler had 71 total yards and two TDs, while Rex Burkhead chipped in with 15 yards.
Big Ballers
Trust us, we've been in this business for quite a long time now. Adversity happens, losses pile up, your fans get a little whiny, and the local beat writers turn nit-picky with their incessant questions. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that in the world of fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence any critics out there! Keep your chin up, Big Ballers!
