Coach Talk

San Francisco 49'ers
Hey, it's good to be confident, San Francisco 49'ers. It's a bold move to deploy a player with zero points (Jauan Jennings), while still earning the win! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we're done.
Cleveland Browns
Well, Cleveland Browns, this week's problem is fairly easy to identify. Starting Kadarius Toney and Khalil Herbert in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied more than 272 points... let's try to play with a full deck of cards next time.
