Coach Talk

Password Is Taco
Only two makes on four field goal tries? It's quite possible that Harrison Butker just kicked himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
Bein's Team
It's entirely possible that Bein's Team may be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just four targets combined in Week 14, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently spent most of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
