Coach Talk

Finkle & Einhorn
Props on deploying a lineup that accounted for over 160 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. We should tip our cap to the GM of FriendsOfDonCherry, take this win in stride, and continue on our way towards a fantasy championship.
FriendsOfDonCherry
Well, FriendsOfDonCherry, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science. Starting Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Dyami Brown, and Nick Bosa in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied over 160 points... let's try to play with a full deck of cards next time.
