Coach Talk

David's Dandy Team
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Alex Le's Team at the wide receiver position (34.2 points to 13.7).
Alex Le's Team
It's entirely possible that Alex Le's Team may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just 12 targets combined in Week 16, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
