Coach Talk

Karen R's Team
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no other way for us to spin this, Karen R's Team; our quarterback was thoroughly overmatched by the opposition. Gardner Minshew II went 24-of-40 for 355 yards and two touchdowns for The One Who Knocks, while Kirk Cousins was 34-of-48 for 299 passing yards and three scores.
The One Who Knocks
So, The One Who Knocks, what did your pass-catchers do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? Seeing only 27 targets as a group in Week 16, our starting receiver crew (five WR, two TE) obviously need to get on their QBs' good sides this week in practice.
