Coach Talk

神出鬼没小涛涛
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by soundly outplaying 屡败屡战 at the wide receiver position (35.8 points to 5.4).
屡败屡战
There's a real possibility that 屡败屡战 might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. With only seven targets combined this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
