Coach Talk

REDSKINS
Good work deploying a starting crew that produced 117.6 points this past week. We did what was needed and took care of business. We should keep this momentum going as we head into our Week 14 matchup.
Blue Mountain State
Welp, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 20 times in Week 13. Chemistry could be the primary issue, as that group pulled down just 12 catches.
