Coach Talk

Questionable
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a solid outing by Russell Wilson, we almost quadrupled Shikaka at the quarterback position this past week (22.98 points to 5.92). Wilson went 23-for-31 for 237 yards and two TDs (plus no INTs) in a 26-23 loss to the 49ers.
Shikaka
Shikaka may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a healthy 26 targets in Week 15. With just 13 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
