Coach Talk

The Madcows
Nice job, The Madcows. Bravo on fielding a lineup that blew the opposition out by more than 177 points this past matchup. Let's keep this momentum rolling as we step into our Week 16 matchup.
Henrything Is Possible
There's a real chance that Henrything Is Possible might be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only 20 targets as a group in Week 15, their six starting pass-catchers (five WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
