Coach Talk

FantasyFootballTeam
Nice work deploying a starting crew that won by a staggering 55.6 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done.
Tingos
With just a pair of receptions this past week, the starting running backs for Tingos should investigate why their QBs are giving them the silent treatment.
