Coach Talk

GB Packers (JP)
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling Cincinnati Bengals at the wide receiver position (13 points to 4).
Cincinnati Bengals
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 36 times in Week 13. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they pulled down just 22 receptions.
