Coach Talk

Green Bay Packers
Listen Green Bay Packers, the good news is that we took this matchup by more than 56 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this, as our scoring average through 10 weeks was 204.22. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Jacksonville JAGUARS
There's a possibility that Jacksonville JAGUARS may be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. With only 18 total targets this past week, their seven starting pass-catchers (five WR, two TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
