Coach Talk

Jacksonville Jaguars
Just three field goals on five attempts? It's quite possible that Ka'imi Fairbairn just kicked himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
Indianapolis Colts
There's a decent chance that Indianapolis Colts could be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating only seven total targets in Week 11, their three wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
