Coach Talk

Jefferson Airplane
Nice job deploying a starting crew that won by over 70 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. We should take this W in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Goodfella, and continue on our way towards the Beer League Fantasy Football championship.
Goodfella
It's entirely possible that Goodfella might be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just eight targets combined in Week 10, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
