An Easy W
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a thrilling performance by Aaron Rodgers, we doubled up DeKaylin Zecharius at the quarterback position this past week (22.54 points to 10.62).

Welp, we certainly can't whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 18 targets in Week 8. With just eight total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
