Coach Talk

Baltimore Ravens
Hey, we admire the confidence, Baltimore Ravens. It's a bold move to deploy, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Grady Jarrett and Chris Evans), while still getting the win! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be done.
San Francisco 49ers
Hey, it's possible that San Francisco 49ers would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 25 total targets this past week, their seven starting pass-catchers (six WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their respective offenses by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
