What kind of coach are you?
Take Wolf’s quiz to determine whether you’re a genius, or Matt Millen.
This week marks the absolute deadline for NFL junkies to get their fantasy football rosters in shape before the 2010-2011 season.
Like every year, we head into the season all thinking we’re gridiron geniuses. But I don’t care what you say, fantasy football has less to do with football knowledge and more to do with dumb luck than a drunken sailor’s attempt at picking the stock market.
Since everyone here at the Sheet office claims to be the next Chris Berman, we decided to start our own fantasy league. The only problem is that everyone in our league, in all actuality, is about as good at managing a roster as Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis. So to settle the preseason debate, we’ve decided to come up with this quick and easy non-scientific quiz to see who really is the fantasy master. Add up your total at the end to see what kind of coach you actually are.

10-18 points: The second-coming of Matt Millen – Flat out, you’re an awful coach. You actually make the former Lions GM look as appealing as the Old Spice guy, even if he did nothing but draft wide receivers for 8 years.
19-29 points: Rex Ryan’s Stunt Double- Like the Jets’ current head coach you have a pretty damn good team. But it doesn’t matter because more than likely you’ll make it to the semifinals and choke.
30-40 points: Bill Belichick’s Apprentice – You drafted all the right pieces. You have a stud at QB, a solid backfield and you love football so much you refuse to change out of that cutoff hoodie you’ve been wearing all season.
