Coach Talk

Jacksonville Jaguars
Listen Jacksonville Jaguars, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped recently, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 291.21 points through Week 3, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outperforming the 244.08 we needed for this past week's win!
Las Vegas Raiders
Well, Las Vegas Raiders, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science. Starting Jayon Brown, Rock Ya-Sin, and Hunter Renfrow in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied over 244 points... let's try to play with a full deck of cards next time?
