Coach Talk

Sooners
Hey, the key to football is creating and exploiting the mismatches, right? Thanks to a solid showing from Russell Wilson, we thoroughly dominated What?! at the quarterback position this past week (23 points to 9). Wilson went 21-for-27 for 206 yards, four TDs, and an INT in a 40-3 win over the Jets.
What?!
The problem in Week 14 isn't exactly rocket science, What?!. Choosing to start George Kittle and DJ Moore in a tough fantasy matchup... let's all just move on from this and assume something like this won't be happening again?
