Ezekiel Elliott (71 Rush Yds, 66 Rec Yds) and Joe Mixon (44 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 26 Rec Yds) led the way for Kirk's Standout Team in the loss.

Coach Talk

I've got a thielen
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a sound outing by Aaron Rodgers, we thoroughly outscored Kirk's Standout Team at the quarterback position this past week (28.12 points to 10.72). Rodgers went 21-for-33 for 243 yards and four TDs in a 31-13 victory over the Giants.
Kirk's Standout Team
Hey, it's possible that Kirk's Standout Team may be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating only three total targets in Week 13, their two wide receivers apparently spent the majority of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
