Coach Talk

Nah G
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Not only did we nearly triple Winner Schnitzel at QB (33.5 points to 11.55), we also royally dominated them at WR (45.1 to 6.85).
Winner Schnitzel
Unless Winner Schnitzel wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many chances" isn't really a reasonable excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a respectable 31 targets in Week 16. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group tallied just 18 receptions.
