Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a stellar display from Jimmy Garoppolo, we thoroughly outscored The Excellector at the quarterback position this past week (85.4 points to 32.05). Garoppolo went 34-for-45 for 424 yards, four TDs, and two INTs in a 36-26 victory over the Cardinals.

Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (five WR, one TE) collectively got a healthy 33 targets in Week 11. With only 18 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
