Coach Talk

Colorado Elways
This sport is all about identifying the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling Over's Boss Team at the wide receiver position (39.3 points to 12).
Over's Boss Team
Hey, it's possible that Over's Boss Team would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. With just 11 targets combined in Week 16, their three wide receivers apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
