Coach Talk

Washington Football Team
Listen, Washington Football Team, we do appreciate the confidence. It takes moxie to deploy a starter with zero points (Cameron Brate), while still getting the win! We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be done.
Jacksonville Jaguars
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our six pass-catchers (four WR, two TE) were targeted a grand total of 36 times in Week 13. Chemistry could be the primary problem, as that group hauled in only 20 catches.
