Coach Talk

King Swag
Hey, football is all about creating mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by tripling Commanders at the wide receiver position (69 points to 22).
Commanders
"Not seeing enough chances" won't fly as an excuse this week for Commanders. Our six pass-catchers (five WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 39 times in Week 16. With only 15 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
