InterHepption
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? Fueled by some stellar yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team really made that happen this week.

That’s Amari
Unless That’s Amari wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" is not an excuse this week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) collectively got a hearty 23 targets in Week 16. With only 10 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
