Coach Talk

Ditka Naybox
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's not really any way sugarcoat it, Ditka Naybox: our quarterback was significantly outclassed by the opposition. Josh Allen went 29-of-42 for 249 yards and two touchdowns for Lambeau Leapers, and all Patrick Mahomes could manage through the air was 275 yards and one passing TD (plus an ugly interception). We need to work overtime to get on the same page with our receivers this week!
Lambeau Leapers
Unless Lambeau Leapers wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 25 times in Week 8. With only 14 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
