Coach Talk

Hey Darnold
Sure, we ultimately earned the win, but there's not really any way sugarcoat it, Hey Darnold. Our starting wide receivers were significantly overmatched this past week. Buoyed by a Tyreek Hill goose-egg and Cooper Kupp (53 yards, no TDs), our three WRs combined for just 18.6 points in Week 11. The starting wideouts for George's Grand Team showed us up by recording a score of 49.6. We need to bug the QB to get some more targets in Week 12!
George's Grand Team
Wait, our starting QB tossed four interceptions and just a pair of touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape. Were the Saints genuinely that stout against the pass, or was Jameis Winston just that out-of-tune with his receiving crew? This is the sort of decision you'll need to make, George's Grand Team, as you manage your lineup for Week 12 and beyond!
