Coach Talk

ImGoinInSoft
Way to shrug off that two-game winless skid, ImGoinInSoft! Each fantasy GM will surely be met with adversity at some point or another... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.

Logging just two targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for The X-Factor should remind their quarterbacks to check down more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
