Coach Talk

The Amazingly Peter
Listen The Amazingly Peter, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring's declined a bit lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 91.28 points through Week 13, our crew has certainly proven that it's even better than the 89.92 we needed for this past week's win!
Duck Tape
Hey, it's possible that Duck Tape might be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just 11 targets as a group this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
