Coach Talk

Philadelphia Eagles
Creating mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Minnesota Vikings at the wide receiver position (58.7 points to 24.2).
Minnesota Vikings
Hey, Minnesota Vikings, what did your receivers do to tick off their quarterbacks this week? With just 17 targets as a group in Week 11, our five wide receivers obviously got on their respective QBs' bad sides.
