Coach Talk

Chicago Bears
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. With some stellar yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a noticeable disparity this week. Our backfield put up 79 more total yards than the RBs on Washington Commanders (160 yards from scrimmage to 81), as we ultimately tripled them at the position (31 points to 9.1).
Washington Commanders
There's a chance that Washington Commanders might be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just six targets combined in Week 6, their five wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
