Coach Talk

D Felony
Identifying mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Thanks to a solid outing by Lamar Jackson, we quadrupled Da Renagades at the quarterback position this past week (46.26 points to 11.46). Jackson went 15-for-20 for 169 yards and five TDs in a 45-6 win over the Rams.
Da Renagades
Well, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 28 times in Week 12. With just 14 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
