Coach Talk

Roy's Rad Team
Sure, we ultimately earned the win, but there's not really any way sugarcoat it, Roy's Rad Team: our wide receivers were severely overmatched this past week. Josh Gordon (19 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) logged just 13.4 points in Week 15. For chicago bears, Tyler Boyd and Julio Jones doubled us up with a score of 29. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 16!
chicago bears
Hey, chicago bears... Even though you started Drew Brees at quarterback, it's not like we can just breeze through each fantasy matchup week-after-week.
