Coach Talk

will's Team
Hey, football is all about finding the mismatches. Fueled by stellar numbers from our receiving corps, our team really took that to heart this past week. We doubled up buttfumble's Team at wide receiver (38.8 points to 17.4). DeAndre Hopkins had 170 receiving yards and two TDs while Tyler Boyd logged 38 yards.
buttfumble's Team
Hey, it's possible that buttfumble's Team might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just nine total targets in Week 15, their two wide receivers apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
