Coach Talk

Planet united
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Planet united! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then we have found an area to improve. Our QB was severely outplayed by the opposition. Ryan Tannehill went 16-of-24 for 137 yards and three touchdowns for Fools and Horses, and all Jared Goff could manage through the air was 207 yards and one passing TD. Let's spend some extra time this week working with our receivers!
Fools and Horses
"Four score and seven points ago, our players brought forth, upon this fantasy matchup..." Wait, that's not how it goes (and unfortunately for us, not all fantasy squads are created equal). Our 87-point showing wasn't enough to get the win this week. Continue pushing forward, Fools and Horses, for as the great Abraham Lincoln once said: "You cannot fail unless you quit."
