Coach Talk

Team Strong
Football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a sound display from Lamar Jackson, we quadrupled Dallas Ain't My Team at the quarterback position this past week (44.7 points to 10.7). Jackson went 17-for-24 for 222 yards and four TDs in a 41-7 win over the Texans.
Dallas Ain't My Team
Unless Dallas Ain't My Team wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 29 times in Week 11. With just 17 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
