Coach Talk

Robert's Broncos
Wow, Robert's Broncos, you put the rest of the league on notice with this performance. In addition to a 19.56-point victory, you also jumped up two spots in the league standings!
BUCCANEERS
There's a possibility that BUCCANEERS may be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 10 total targets in Week 3, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
