Coach Talk

The bad guy Scott hall
Nice job assembling a lineup that earned more than 164 points this past week. We deem that to be a job done right. Let's tip our cap to the GM of AVD, take this victory in stride, and continue our march towards the Wwe league title.
AVD
It's entirely possible that AVD could be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With just 12 total targets in Week 2, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
