Coach Talk

Champ Kind
Nice job overcoming that two-game winless streak, Champ Kind! Each fantasy GM will surely be met with adversity at some point or another... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Pogues Mahone
Keep your head up, Pogues Mahone! You can feel good knowing that your kindness didn't go unnoticed. It took real generosity to help someone like Champ Kind succeed this week... and maybe one day, they'll return the favor by going Defense-Kicker in the first two rounds of the 2023 draft, something along those lines.
