Coach Talk
DITKA
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. Fueled by stellar outings by Stefon Diggs and CeeDee Lamb, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We tripled FantasyFootball Team at wide receiver (52.9 points to 16). Diggs had 145 receiving yards and three TDs while Lamb logged 65 yards.
FantasyFootball Team
Unless FantasyFootball Team wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many chances" isn't really an excuse this time around. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 16. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 11 catches.
