Coach Talk

The Fighting Sloth
Nice job overcoming that two-match losing streak, The Fighting Sloth! Each fantasy team will surely be hit with adversity at some point or another... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Nana Nancy
Your starting QB threw two interceptions and just a single touchdown? Maybe we should go back and review the game tape: Were the Bills genuinely that great defending the pass, or was Kirk Cousins just that out-of-sync with the receivers? You'll need to decide one way or the other... Nana Nancy, as you manage your lineup in Week 11 and beyond!
