Coach Talk

Mark's Matchless Team
You know what, Mark's Matchless Team, we do appreciate the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Jeff Wilson Jr.), while still getting the win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists.
The Lollipop Guild
Well, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science, The Lollipop Guild. Choosing to start Pat Freiermuth, James Robinson, and Lamar Jackson in a tough fantasy matchup... let's just assume something like this won't happen again and move on.
