Coach Talk

Saultcrew
You know Saultcrew, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has declined a bit recently, I'll choose to take the high road. Averaging 3,109.6 points through Week 5, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outperforming the 2,830 we needed for this past week's win!
Hustlers
The problem this week is pretty easy to diagnose, Hustlers. Choosing to start the San Francisco 49ers defense, Elijah Moore and Nasir Adderley in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied 2,830 points... let's try to play with a full deck of cards next time.
