Coach Talk

Boomtown Brawlers
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches, right? Fueled by a stellar outing from Kirk Cousins, we thoroughly dominated GreatPlainsDrifters at the quarterback position this past week (32.05 points to 5.65). Cousins orchestrated a Vikings win over the Broncos, going 29-of-35 for 319 yards and three passing TDs.
GreatPlainsDrifters
"Not seeing enough chances" won't fly as an excuse this week for GreatPlainsDrifters. Our six pass-catchers (five WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 27 times in Week 11. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group hauled in just 15 receptions.
